Ok, so i will make this short. My grand daughter (20 months) just broke a toy belonging to my other grandson. Yes, I suppose we have all been there but Im concerned for him. He’s distraught. It was his favourite plastic fire engine after all. Any advice or ideas on making this easier? and on a serious note any behaviours I should be watching out for? Should I buy him a new one for example ? |

You just need to take it slow. Plastic toys are not as tough as they used to be. You need to make him understand this and the fact that sometimes its time for things to die.
Help him understand this point by carefully outling that you, his grandma and his parents will also die, with statistically at least one of those a gruesome or painful death.
Oh, and skelp the ass off your granddaughter. Little b*tch. Maybe break one of her toys too in retaliation to show that life has a whole karma thing going on.  |

Dude. You get the engine, tee it up, then boot it down the garden. Then tell him, now you do it and pretend there was a gas explosion at the fire they were tackling.

Do not, I repeat do not buy him a new one.
You need to let him Mourne the loss otherwise he will learn to replace pain with joy and push the pain deep deep down till one day he's a grown man and working In a fire station and remembers his forgotten loss, that's when the real trouble begins |

If you see them copying any of your habitual behaviors then you should be concerned, and probably brought to a child psychologist.
These patterns can be broken before they deepen and are passed on. |
