Is it normal to not like a 9 year old?

88% Normal
27 Comments

I'm 18 and one of my mom's friend's granddaughters annoys me. She's just really, really hyper and there is just something about her. It's like she can't stay still for just a second. Now don't get me wrong, I love kids, but hyper people (in general of all ages) just rub me the wrong way. And I'm a pretty laid-back, introvert person. My mom has noticed my attitude about/toward her and made me feel really bad about it but I can't help how I feel about certain people and how honest I am about them. Plus it sucks when I want to hang out with her grandma (whom I really like and is a really cool person) and she has to bring along her granddaughter. Ugh, what should I do?

      Haha she's actually a lot younger than typical grannies and loves to party. Plus some elementary schoolers are really cool and some are well....yeah.

      Ya got that right!!!

      @ the OP: It's perfectly normal to dislike annoying people, regardless of their age.

      "My mom has noticed my attitude about/toward her"

      "Now don't get me wrong, I love kids"

    Engage her. Playing with kids is the closest we get to being kids again ourselves. Although, I'm biased. I have a lot of tolerance for hyperactivity. What happened to AnneEatzUrHeart, by the way, while we're on the subject?

    Maybe if you just played with her for 2mins, she'd calm down a tad.
    Quite obviously this kid is bored out of her mind and no one helping her with all that built up energy.
    Try even playing catch, or hide and seek, or anything at all. I mean you yourself may have a 9yo daughter one day. Do Something!

    I think this is pretty normal, I have a cousin who is also about 9, he is adorable most of the time but after a 3hr bus ride sitting next to him, I have concluded that:

    1. Never combine a 12hr flight with a 3hr bus trip
    2. Children love candy
    3. Have a bag of candy with you, when you need some peace and quiet, give them a piece in exchange for them playing somewhere else or staying silent for a period of time.

    I get it and it is completely normal. Had a room mate with a kid a while back. The kid was about that age and was completely worthless and a real brat at that. Your family friend's 9-year old grandchild sounds like an undiagnosed unmedicated ADHD kid. No shortage of them these days.

    So here is an opportunity to identify coping skills for you to deal with people you don't care to be around. There is no shortage of them either and you will need to develop ways to get througfh your day without "flashing" or "lashing" out on people that annoy you.

    Like the gangster NBA basketball player once proclaimed, "practice, we talkin' 'bout practice".

    It's normal. Most kids are annoying and carry on like that. Why don't you ask to spend time alone with your friend or tell your mom that you hate her granddaughter?
