Ever since T1 was 3 years old, she would cry after a holiday. I don’t know why. She’d cry every time we came home and we’d have to endure her dramatic tears and sadness for a few hours. It was almost like she’d sink into a depression after a holiday because she’d had too much fun and now the fun had ended. We have tried talking to her, explaining that there are good times and not so good times and if she was on holiday all the time, it would no longer be a holiday! Yadayadayadaya…..
Once, after returning from Kota Bharu, she began her primadona performance and when my MIL called to check if we’d arrived home, T1 cried and cried and cried so loud, so of course my MIL wanted to speak to her. T1 told her she missed KB *sobs* and she missed Ama’s apple pie *bigger sobs* blablablabla……and do you know what my MIL did? She couriered a fresh apple pie tightly sealed in a tupperware the very next day.
*FAINT*
Lately, she’s started having sleepovers at her Nana’s and every single Sunday when she comes home, she’d cry. Cry because she had TOO MUCH FUN at Nana’s and now she is home with stressed out Mommy who always has no time for her and a crying baby. How depressing is that?
At Nana’s she gets to do paper mache, design and string necklaces, paint her nails, go swimming, watch as much TV as she likes, play games, chat without being told to shut up be quiet, eat as much of anything she desires, paint and draw, go anywhere she wants……BUY anything she wants……in fact, now she’s lobbying to stay with Nana every day!
But she has to learn, right? Life is not a candy and lollipops everyday.
What do you think I should do with this girl? I feel like selling her!

Perhaps you gotta her warn her slowly before the holiday or play time comes to an end? Like warn her 15 mins before, 10 mins before and then 5 mons before so that her expectation is set?
I do that but i still get attitude when ashley’s playtime come to an end 😛

rye li gets upset too when our holidays end but she knows she has to follow us coz i always give her the option she can stay behind by herself (which she is very afraid of!). 🙂
