Our daughter seems perfectly happy, but I’m worried not seeing any peers at all for so long will have major effects on her.

I have a 4-year-old daughter who is very bright and happy. She has a late birthday so she was only to start pre-K this year. Because of COVID, my husband and I have decided to skip it altogether and teach her everything she needs to know before kindergarten ourselves. This doesn’t worry me academically, but Iconcerned about her development and the loss of the social interaction she was going to experience.

Now I’m worried. My nephew retains every piece of information he gathers and is a little chatterbox. I am afraid that the next time he speaks to my father, he is going to blurt out everything we told him about the restaurant . It will hurt my father when he brings up the fire . If my nephew were an adult relative, I’d privately ask him not to bring any of this up with my father, but since he is a child, I am not quite sure what the path forward is.

My advice is that you do nothing at all to prevent your nephew from revealing what he knows. And that you do nothing to prepare your father for the possibility that your nephew might bring it up. If your nephew brings up the restaurant and the fire when he talks to your dad, your dadhandle it. Maybe it’ll do him good to have a conversation about it with his grandson—maybe it’ll be a chance to talk about it in a way he never has, and a real opportunity for the two of them to meaningfully connect.

As to the question of your father getting angry with you because you talked about this in earshot of the child : If he’s angry, he’s angry. He’ll recover from that, too. And so will you.
