[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 500285"] difficult child 1 used to do this complete with the head thing. Now that I think about it, it stopped when I pulled him out of public school. He was being punished so much there and told "you should know better than that" and expected to act like everyone else his age when he didn't know how. His self-esteem went down the toilet because he figured he MUST be stupid if he can't do what everyone else is telling him he should be able to do. Because of all this, it carried over into home and any time he didn't get his way, it was the same phrase Brownie used and yes, difficult child 1 hit his head many times. His self-esteem was THAT bad. Now that he's out of that whole mess of a school, he's very self-confident, almost cocky now, LOL but it is a very nice change. I can't tell you the last time I've heard that from him. [/QUOTE]
