These were opportunities, for me, to teach that people need space. And respect for privacy. And not everything one thinks needs to be said. And there are limits to the closeness one can have, even with one's family and most cherished loved ones. And there are fabulous things to be discovered in reading quietly, playing alone, imagination within one's own head, etc. I taught my child basic meditation as a toddler. I taught self-entertainment, and activities that could be done independently. It's ok to teach a child that everyone else has desires and needs too. I even think it's seriously beneficial to the child's later social and personal development.
Opps, the above was a quote from Kaibab -sorry I did that wrong.
Yes! I think we can call this "home training". Based on my daily experience many people don't get home training, lol.
More boundary training would be nice.- Okay I am probably getting off topic. I appreciate hearing the experiences.
