Hair Pull

Yesterday I found Elle straddling Bryn pulling out chunks of hair....3 times! What brought on these violent acts? Here are some thoughts:

1. Elle woke up cranky. She didn't sleep enough and wouldn't sleep anymore. This could cause ANYONE to pull out a younger sibling's hair.
2. Bryn has been particularly annoying. I hesitate to say that my child has been annoying, but she has. She is whining and is super cranky herself (teething!). So, perhaps Elle is just annoyed with all the racket Bryn is making. Pulling hair should quiet her down.
3. She watched Terminator 3 the night before.

Some days are like that, hang in there. gj

MY kids NEVER EVER did anything like that. I suggest you take her to a pediatric psycho person to get her looked at.

Mine did the same thing! She thought it was funny. She pulled out a huge chunk right before the wedding- right in the front. She still has a little bald spot. I was so upset by it because I love her hair and I have no idea what gave my oldest the idea. It hasn't happened again though, not really so there's hope, right? Poor Bryn!

I think it is number three. What was she doing watching T3 anyway?

She watched T3 after Die Hard 3....a night of threes.

My sister once pulled out a huge chunk of my hair, but that's because she stepped on while trying to help me do a back-handspring on the trampoline. Ouch!
