Casual Complaint: What Do I Do? Children Hate Me :( by Nobody: 12:47pm On Oct 24, 2015 |
I still don't know why but it is really disturbing. I mean, I try to hold a child and they start wailing, someone else comes along and it seems so easy to make them laugh. Babies are the worst, they've always hated me for as long as I can remember. I tried making funny faces or singing their favourite songs but it's all being a total disaster, like I'm not really cut out for it. I laugh a lot when a joke is told, it's sooo easy to make me laugh but not the other way round. For some time now, I've been tutoring kids on playing Scrabble. I think I'm doing pretty well considering the fact that I'm able to keep them interested and not made any of them cry yet. But I still get a little freaked out when I have to scold them, I keep praying no one decides to walk out because they hate me. Occasionally, I get that kid that loves me. When this happens, it's always in the extreme. For instance, my aunt and her 2 year old son visited us recently. The kid and I hit it off immediately. Two days later, I had to go live with them because he kept asking about me and would neither eat nor sleep. This always happens when a kid likes me for real. While I wish I could have this effect on kids all the time, it's only wishful thinking. I keep asking if my own kids will love or hate me. Why do children just hate me? |

Pineapp:Lol, Firstly, I don't use make up. I think as someone with a great sense of humor, I'm rarely caught not smiling. please check my profile photo, do I look like Karen?. And lastly......I wouldn't say much about my religious orientation but I do know I have no questionable morals. |

Pineapp:I'm actually laughing out loud right now. Eh! is this me? I've suffered. |
Re: Casual Complaint: What Do I Do? Children Hate Me :( by Nobody: 4:51pm On Oct 24, 2015 |
Swissheart:Thanks a mil. I'll smile more since apparently, my current level of smiling isn't high up the bar enough. And it is an issue...I guess it's hard to understand till it happens to you. |

JustTara:it's normal that some kids will like you more than others, I won't even say they hate u babies are unpredictable, they can cry at u today and smile at u tomorrow. But why does this even bother u?? And yes your kids will love u which is the most important thing. 1 Like |

ok so lemme try share a few idea with you sweetie (1) you should have a loving heart. love n care for these babies from the bottom of your heart [i'm not saying you don't] (2) stop entertaining the thought that babies don't like you. [in fact they do as you yourself can attest to] (3) don't quit playing with them when you see them, but watch it dear; make sure it's not scary to them [what we call scary is not what they call scary coz little things may scare them] (4) when you approach a baby, don't pre suppose it'll reject you that's preposterous. #ilovebabies 1 Like |

If you genuinely love kids, you don't need to try too hard to win them over. Be yourself, smile, and relax when you are around them. |
