My sister like that her 6 yr aged daughter have no friends!?
I find this bizarre. you typically want your children to be involved with other children. My niece is 6 as well and she have a lot of friends, and gets invited to TONS of weekend events. Her daughter is going to end up resenting her mother for her not have friends, and not getting the childhood experiences she should be getting! Most parents encourage meeting new relations and going new places. No matter what though i believe your sister is going to think your "stepping on her toes" no business what you say.. Your going to have to just relate her : Hey I think this is strange and mom wanted us to have friends and you should provoke " " to have friends too.. you don't want your flaws to rub off on " " do you? I mean simply tell her how you feel it might hurt her up front but it will help her long occupancy! Good luck with all of this, and stick to your guns.. outsiders have the best opinion.. she will notice this after the fact~!
clearly your sister has prearranged mental issues and is passing that on 2 her daughter. get her help or your niece is doomed to a go with no friends and issues just like her mom. honest luck. Source(s): mom of 2 handsome boys and 1 beautiful daughter
tell your sister she is being selfish and she will regret it soon when her daughter grows up and blames her for her troubles/rebellion! it will happen. it is a part of a childs growth to have social interaction next to other children. to be honest about it she is being abusive within a way. emotionally abusive.
That's definitely not acceptable! It's one point if her daughter prefers to play by herself, but it's something totally different if her mother likes that fact because she gets her adjectives to herself. Children should have friends; there's a problem if they don't. She doesn't need to be the most popular kid in her class; she basically needs a friend. If this goes on she will probably become socially awkward in her teen years and surface depressed. She won't have anyone her age to talk to about problems. Friends are really considerable in childhood.
Does your sister have friends with whom she is totally close to? If so, try pointing out her relationship with her friends and compare it to a relationship that she might want her daughter to have. If not, then I would merely tactfully express concerns that her daughter may be the only one in her class to be friendless. This will absolutely be difficult, but there's not much you can do to help without stepping on your sister's toes, as you put it.
Your sister definitely wishes counseling, and I'm afraid I'm also at a loss at how to make her get the help she requirements. I wish you and your niece best of luck.
