My daughter used to lock herself in the bathroom and eat there. One day I decided to set up a camera to understand the reason for her strange behavior and saw something scary
Recently, my 5-year-old daughter began to behave very strangely.
She was always an obedient and smart child, easily learned everything new, never capricious in food.
But suddenly a habit appeared that really worried me.
Every time I called her to dinner, she refused to sit at the table.
Instead, she took her plate with food and went to the bathroom, where she had previously placed a small chair.
She locked herself in there and only then began to eat.
When she finished, she came out with an empty plate, as if nothing unusual had happened.
At other times, she never went there to play or sit – the bathroom became only a place for her to eat.
At first I thought: “Probably a game, it will soon pass.”
But when this happened every day for a whole month, I got scared.
The most terrible thoughts started flashing through my head: maybe something is wrong with her?
Talking to my daughter was useless – she answered my questions with silence.
Then I made up my mind: in the morning I put a hidden camera in the bathroom and decided to follow.
When it was lunchtime, she took her plate again, went to the bathroom, locked herself in and sat down at her chair.
At first, she just ate calmly.
But then something happened, after which I was sh0cked 😨😱
My daughter suddenly said loudly:
– That’s it! Alex won’t get anything!
I almost dropped the phone from my hands. Alex is her older brother.
Later, I called my son and asked sternly:
– Do you know why your sister always eats in the bathroom?
– Yes, I know, – he answered calmly.
— And why?
I was scared to listen to his answer.
— This coward is afraid that I will steal her food. That’s why she closes herself off.
— And have you stolen her food?
My son shrugged:
— Yes, it happened a couple of times. It’s not my fault that hers always tastes better.
And then everything became clear.
I was winding myself up with terrible scenarios, but everything turned out to be much simpler.
My daughter was simply afraid that her brother would steal a piece of her favorite food from her again.
And she is very vindictive and principled – she decided to protect her own by any means necessary.
