My DD8 was the same way at 5. She had an amazing ability to cut people down verbally without realizing that she was being as mean as it came out. Often times when we talked about it afterward she would be in tears realizing that she had actually been as mean, if not meaner to the other person than they had been to her.

I am happy to report though that she did grow out of it

Kerry - that is great to hear - although I am not so willing yet to say that DS didn't mean to be as mean as he was - I wonder though if the fact that he was just saying what was true made it "okay" in his mind. Thanks for sharing the BTDT, it's comforting!
