@innerworldtherapy: What Most People Get WRONG About 11 Year Olds: Tricky Behaviors Explained by Child Development. 11 is such a tricky age! We are transitioning out of elementary school and into a new psychosocial stage soon too! 11 year olds are so smart and want to challenge and explore the logic part of their brain… couple that with their intense need for fairness and you get a SUPER “argumentative” kid. I say this in quotes because really they just want to state their case or have you explain WHY the rule is in place. There’s lots of sensitivity and unpredictability too - phew! Follow for more on adolescence and child development! #childdevelopment #childpsychology #mindfulparenting #5thgrade #sixthgrade

Our pediatrician told us 10-11 years old is when they find the sharpest daggers but don’t understand how painful they are yet

My daughter just turned 12 and can confirm. I have never argued with someone over absolutely nothing so many times!

You just explained my daughter to a ‘T’. And perimenopause isn’t helping my side of anything one bit. However I don’t remember being as “bad” as this when I was 11. Of course there were issues, but I feel this is way more extreme than “back in the day”. And I am mentally, emotionally and physically exhausted from her/all of it

My 11 year old argues EVERYTHING. Sometimes I just hide to get a break. And he finds me to ensure I see he’s displeased with me!

Mr. Rogers- I think the best thing we can do is to remember what it was like for us and know what our children are going through. We have to remember what we felt like as children and be the person to our child that we needed when we were little.

My son is 11 and he argues with us about literally everything, even when we know he’ll enjoy it. This was helpful!
