I have a 5yo who has started saying ‘i hate you mommy/daddy’ when they are really upset.
Would you let that chill - they don’t mean it they’re just kids and just upset?
Or try to curb that - set consequences for hurtful language?

I would just say “Yeah, I would be mad at me too right now,” when my kids said that. It was a very short-lived phase.
