I tell my 5 year old everyday how much i love him and how special he is to me

Question

and everyone thinks that is weird! is it :) ? i just love him so much and i want him to know it he also tells me things like thanks for taking me to the store mommy i luv you or i love your pretty face mommy! how can i not love this little guy?

Answer 1

Great Job! My 4 hear "I love you" and you are wonderful everyday, at least 2x a day. Every child should. People who think it is weird are sad individuals.

Answer 2

They need to be seen by a Dr. Theres not an hour that goes by that im not trying to tell my daughter something good about her and what i love about her. and i love before and after anything. you love your baby obviously they need the help

Answer 3

I tell my 7 year old and my 2 year old that I love them everyday. when I have to go to work and have to drop them off to the babysitter we will hold out one hand and with each finger we will say softly " I love you very much."  my 2 year old has even gotten to the point that he will hold his hand out. I do not think that what you do is weird, you love your son very much and how else is he going to know that unless you tell him so.

Answer 4

Isn't that great?

How lucky we are to have kids like them? This makes me so happy really.

The love you share with your Son is untouchable, no one can take this from you with is the best thing in the world.

I have a 5 year old Boy and a 3 year old Girl and i do the same, as they always tell me they Love me and what ever I do they are here to admire what I do, from food, to clothing, to anything you can imagine. They even kiss my belly and say Good Morning and Good night each and every day to the new upcoming baby.

My kids are the love of my life, and your kid is too as I see :-)

It is totally amazing to have this bond between you 2.

Answer 5

There is nothing wrong with telling your children you love them.  Keep doing it every day and don't worry about what people say.

Answer 6

Every one should be like that with there kids, I bet the world would be a better place if more parents were like this!

Answer 7

umm....everyone else is weird!!! I ALWAYS tell  my daughter (5) how much I love her.....trust me, it's not just once a day either!!!

don't you like to be told that??????

one caution I would make with a boy is that if he's with his friends I wouldn't be all  "love you pookie snookie. you are the special special boy."   I'd either say nothing around his friends or just be like, "love ya babe."

Answer 8

I tell my 3 year old every chance I get how wonderful and special she is. And how lucky I am to have her in my life. I think it is wonderful that your little boy knows how much you love him. Every child should be so lucky to have such a loving mom!! :) You can never tell your baby too much how much he means to you, and it sounds like he is such a good boy!! It is so hard to look at your child and not just overflow with emotions. There are times my daughter will be perfectly quiet and content playing and i just have to scoop her up and cover her in kissed and cuddle with her. I could not imagine letting a day go by with out telling her how much she is loved and appreciated. Don't listen to the people who react negatively to that. I feel sad knowing they have never known a love like that to know where you are coming from!!

Answer 9

I tell my 3 year old daughter several times a day that I love her and that she's special to me. I don't think it's weird- wouldn't you WANT your child to know that they mean a lot to you?

Answer 10

Keep doing it!  Your son is a lucky boy.

Answer 11

I would hope that by "everyone" you mean people that don't have kids!

Answer 12

I don't think that's weird, in fact your helping your little boy be secure..and as he gets older and is in relationships he will treasure whomever is a friend or lover. Keep up the great work!

Answer 13

that's not weird at all.

and awh that's cute he says that.

its totally normal but make sure he doesn't get so attached to you. but its still a good thing don't get me wrong.

awh bless him.

Answer 14

I think it's perfectly normal, I still tell my parents I love them every time I get off the phone with them and my friends think it's cool that I have such a good relationship with my parents. Keep it a habit, because it does make a difference!

Answer 15

I think every one else is weird.  I do the same thing with my son every day.  I think that children need to hear that you love then as much as possible.  There are so many children that don't hear that their parents love them.  I love my little man and I love him to tell me that he loves me!

Answer 16

Good for you!!!!! Keep on telling him for a long long time and you won't regret it!
