Feel like Marie now.
« on: 10 January 2009, 23:45:48 »

Just removed 2 black bags of teddies and a DS from daughters room, she now hates me. She is not going to sleep, she says she cant, now that I can live with, it can happen to any of us, but there is no excuse for the constant shouting and complaining. Been a problem for about a week, normally she is asleep within minutes of going to bed. She is simply worrying herself and getting frustrated by not falling asleep quickly which, as we know, makes it worse. But her behaviour at the moment is simply being naughty. I am now playing the ignoring game, oh I have taken her bedroom bulb out, she has other lights so she is not in the dark, TV on max, neighbours are deaf. Could be a long night.


Sympathy only, no advice needed.

Not sure, first thought it was something to do with the holidays, late nights and not playing out during the day, a week at school should have sorted that. Believe me been through all the theory, she is happy and from a settled home, not bullied at school, loads of friends etc, a good girl as a rule. Next stem might be to ignore the the usual toughish love and resort to a smack, no bruises of course.......... ::)

Kids soon work it out Mike.

We were buggers as kids.  (I also have a younger brother and sister)

My Sister has 2 lads 18 and 21, now my Sister allways has to have the last word......so imagine whats it's like when the kids turn out the same.  She was no different a a kid.

Us 2 lads learnt the hard way, and yes it didnt do us any any harm (a good smack)  my Sister allways seemed to get away with.  But in the long run maybe she hasnt, as her kids are far worse than we ever were.

All quiet now :y and she did not get all her teddies back, we did have a small compromise. I did taker her outside to the bin to get a couple out, just to prove I did put them in the bin. :) I would have got them out anyway :D

Went through similar problems with 2 of my daughters and my granddaughter when they hit early teen's. Girls tend to get very hormonal as they are turning into young women. All I could do was stay calm and be supportive. At times that can be very difficult :-X

mia is being a real pain in the ass currently  >:( >:(

Totally ruined Tracy's birthday by throwing a stroppy fit in the middle of town and then refusing to do as she was told.

All her presents were taken off her and to day she has only got one back, i have come down on her like a ton of bricks.

I haven't hidden the presents i have put them on display as well, sort of donkey/carrot  theme, i am hoping she will see the error of her ways.....but i doubt she will

It is all part of being a parent, there is not right and wrong, you have to go with the flow. Tonight I pretended to ring Grandad, had a lout conversation so that daughter could hear, Saod Grandad wanted to speak to her, pleased she did not want to as pretend call..... ::)
