Do you remember being 3 yrs old?

Question

I do not. My 2nd cousin is about that old, and he witnesses domestic abuse. He also witnesses his aunts, uncles, moms and dads calling the police on eachother over ridiculous claims just to get the other into trouble. Is this 3ry old boy a lost cause? Should his mom gain full custody and move far away? My family would never look at me th same if I suggested that, but it just doesn't seem that the boy has any positive influenbces.

Answer 1

I usually don't remember last night...

Answer 2

Oh yes, I remember being only three years old and walkiing to Bible school with my five year old sister. I remember many things, but still at that young age there were some things I don't remember. Like going to the grocery store for Grandma. She would give me a dime. But there are lots I don't remember. I feel so sorry for this sweet little boy. Boys are so sensitive and they do have great memories. Hopefully the Mom can keep the boy away from all the negative. So sad and too bad. Little children should have fun and not be around negative all the time. Why do adults have to act so heathenistic? You are right. They boy needs all the positive influences, he can recieve. Jesus says: Suffer Not the Little Children to Come Unto ME, For Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. People who allow the children to suffer will answer to God. It is a bad sin. No the little boy is not a lost cause. Many little ones have endured negative lives and grew up to become famous. SO give all the support you can. Take care and my God bless you and the 3 year old, precious little boy, ALWAYS !

Answer 3

I do remember being 3 years old. The only reason that I do remember this age is because I went through a similar trauma as that of your cousin. No he is not a lost cause, but must be taken out of that situation as soon as possible. My mother was brave enough to take me from an abusive environment and though scarred, I am a better person today because of her decision. I admire your desire to take action because many see but do not take action. While your family may not understand, saving a 3 year old boy will be a reward greater than that of your relatives' scorn. In addition, you in your heart will know that you did the right thing. All my best to you with whatever decision you choose.

Answer 4

I remember being three, but the limits of those memories involve a yellow cap and a grazed knee. Oh, and a white spoon.

I think that you should take it on yourself to be this boy's positive influence. I would consider asking councillors, either at school or just in general, what you should do. If you have a "Kids Helpline" equivalent, try calling them and asking for advice. From the sound of things, this kid is going to grow up a little bit insecure. Perhaps very insecure. I would be seriously concerned about getting him some positive influences before he becomes a hard-as-nails bully in school. Three-years-old... What a sad world we live in.

Seek help from professionals. Again, kids helpline or school councillor. Don't be scared to ask other people- even ordinary teachers. Remember, your cousin's future is at stake.

Answer 5

No I can't remember when I was 3 years old but I do have some memory's bits and piece's of been 4 years old. But most will tell you they can't remember even that young age. Most will remember things like there first day at school in Australia that is about 5 depending on the state. And then some things around that time.

Answer 6

I remember bits and parts of my life at 3. I remeber a little bike that I really wanted. We saw it at a yardsale, and it was sold. Turns out my stepdaddy had bought it for my little sis, and she was 2 years two young.... Turned into mine. I remember my mom and stepdad having a couple arguements. I remember my mom forgetting me in the car overnight ( I had fallen asleep in the back seat) got up and went in our house. We had a pond down the hill I spent a lot of time sneaking off too. I remember my daddy telling me "don't tell grammy I put my grape juice in the trash" when I saw him do it!!! (it wasn't grape juice!) Not a lot of people remember when they are that young. Sharp memories run in my family. I many more of age 3 too. But thats enough.
If the boys mother can honestly take him and provide a better life for him I would agree to it. Children don't need to be subjected to that kinda life.

Answer 7

I remember a lot of things when I was 3 years old. I remember thinking that in 2 years I could go to kindergarten and ride the bus like my sister. Something should be done for that poor boy.

Answer 8

Sounds awful! This child will probably remember this. I am 31 and can remember the abuse that went on in my house growing up. Heck, I can remember when I was two and was being punished for peeing while potty training. Someone needs to get this child out of this situation and QUICK!!

Answer 9

I remember one traumatic incident when I was about that age. It hasn't affected my life much. I was able to put it behind me. I work with children who have behavior problems. Many of their problems are caused by the examples set by their parents. It is better to get the child out of the abusive situation - even if he isn't the one being physically abused.

Answer 10

i do remember when i was three years old i remember before then i think that the mom should probably get divorced and move away if he can get away from it he might not remember it but if he doesn't it will scar him for the rest of his life and he will have problems in his life and it won't be very good... i hope that this helps

Answer 11

I remember very well, i think i was one of gods baby's mysterious babies. I can remember all kinds of things from the past, i can remember what i ate last year on this date. It's weird, i remember one time...I got lost in an elevator and i asked this man to help me find my mommy. When we left the hotel i saw that same person standing next to the door of the car. I was weird
