My almost 7 year old daughter constantly complains to others about various body pains?

[Dina]

She is constantly scrutinizing her body and complaining about things. If it is not a little red dot on her arms, then it is a paper cut that no one sees, or a twisted ankle, or hip pain or shoulder pain, or a tiny scrape. At first she did this at home only, but now she does this with her teachers to the extent that they started complaining to me about her complaining! She is avery good student except for the complaining.

She also has a nasty nervous habits where she scrapes the skin of her all her finger tips to the extent that they are raw! I told her that she will not have any finger prints left ! I constantly apply lotions to prevent her from doing it! She does this when she listens to her teachers or watches TV...It must be painfull but somehow she never complains about that????

maybe she complains because she hears it from you. no offense by that, im not saying it to be rude! just i realize that i complain like my mother. maybe she's doing it for attention. tell her that if she stops complaining and stuff that you will give her rewards such as taking her out for ice cream if she's good.
