I'm watching a friend's kid (4 years old) for a month, along with my 11 month old.
The 4 year old tattle tells over EVERYTHING. For example, "He looked at me." and "He sat next to me." and "The baby smiled at me." Seriously, things that aren't even bad she tattle tells about. I ask her, "Is that a bad thing to do?" and she says yes, so then I tell her it's not and I don't want her tattle telling over it.
She also has constant injuries. Everyday her foot, finger, eye, back, brain, whatever hurts. Or someone touches her and she goes, "OW! I am hurt, he hurt me!"
Annoying.
How do I break her of this bad behavior? I can't deal with this for a month, it's ALL DAY, NON STOP.
I honestly just want to send her to time out everytime she does it, but is that too harsh?
