[QUOTE="MommaK, post: 691618, member: 20354"] Sounds like the 5 year old is not really being disciplined and the older kids are not getting the time and attention they need. With the older ones we tend to forget that even tho they may be more independent they still need our time and attention. The younger one sounds like a spoiled brat to me. I'm not seeing it as a mental type issue but more of an issue with boundaries not being set or enforced. I work in a day care/pre school. We have kids like that and when you see them with their parents you understand where it's coming from. I may be wrong, wouldn't be the first time. I do think tho if it's not currently a psychological issue it will be in the near future when someone does set and enforce boundaries and the child can't handle it. This one, from the amount of info we have, I blame solely on the parents. [/QUOTE]
