My dog is like that. Kids will rush over to pet him and he will just sit and look at me - like "why am I having to do this" - and "there had better be a good snack in this for me" - I have to tell people my breed is not like a labrador or golden retriever.
My other dog is the lover - but he is a mix and not usually the focus of attention from strangers until he butts in to get strangers to pet him.

I want to curl up in a corner and cry. And cry. And cry.
Depression sucks.

I made up the Abbey thing - I would never really play games like that because I would be bored out of my head. But seriously sometimes people do leave their small children with me and, surprising to everyone, the children do seem to like it. And I don't play games with them as I despise games. I don't mind babies and toddlers because babies don't talk and you don't have to pay attention to what toddlers say - or at least I have not found it a problem.

I am at a loss with what to do with my son.. He is five, he barley acts like a preschooler these days. We just got him potty trained in the last couple of months. His behaviors are out of control, he does what he wants, when he wants. I emailed his t this week and was giving her an update, as things have gone hill lately. She suggested we start to fill out a behavior journal to see if we can pin point some triggers. He does have anxiety issues, his T and I have discussed Sensory processing disorder as of late.. and now I am just wondering if he is more on the spectrum somewhere.. ugh, we just had a bad day. And I have only been home with him for a couple of hours.

I just don't listen to the ones who talk. They can chatter away - I have not found the ones who stay with me care if I talk back or not.

I wish. She will sit in front of me and go on and on. She will not stop until I acknowledge what she is saying. She does this when I am on the phone and I have to keep pausing to reply to her. If I don't, she gets louder and louder. I hope she learns to talk quietly one day.

I think they are different around their parents. Seriously I have not had any under 3 who seemed to mind. 3 and older it gets trickier. But the ones I have dealt with seemed to learn what they can expect from me (and not talking interrupting while I am on the phone or talking to someone else is a big deal to me - we get that established quite quickly) and they reportedly ask their parents if they can to come see me.

Ha. I imagine it is because I know I don't have to deal with them and can give them back at any time. So I can tell the child - if you do X then Y will happen (if you talk to me while I am on the phone, I will take you back to your mother and not play with you today. And then I do it - I rarely have to do it more than once or twice).
And my dogs are better with other people too. In training class they are great with the woman leading the class and with me they stick their nose into my pocket for their treats.

I just walked by an art place. They apparently have an exhibit based around the statement, I am bitter. It's translated into several languages and have a "complete the statement" thing. To be fair they also have, I am not bitter. in the same languages.
