Our family was on vacation recently\u2013and my husband and I wanted to explore some new sights. We love to wander around and breathe it all in. My kids don\u2019t always share this joy. In fact, on this particular trip, their legs seem to quit functioning altogether. They \u201ccouldn\u2019t walk\u201d another step but could miraculously ride a bike and swim with ease.\nWhining is very much a part of childhood.\nIn fact, it\u2019s also very much a part of adulthood. But by the time we are grown, we have learned the difference between public and private speech,\xa0and\xa0we understand the need to separate the two in different contexts.\nThe post Why Do Kids Whine? appeared first on Simple Families.
