Dad may be hurting kids self esteem
I'm concerned abt my children's (15,12,1.5 years old) self-esteem. Bf is a great guy & loves being silly w/ kids. Problem is his jokes go too far. Like if the kid's ask what's for dinner, he says something silly. But when they say "No really?" he will insist the silly thing is true, and never really answer them. He does this rly often. I'm worried this makes the kids feel worthless & dumb(if they believe him). Is there a term for this or am I overreacting? How do I get him to see how they feel?
