Not only is she the "middle child" she is the only girl! My oldest son is 7, & I've never had a problem w/ attitude like I do w/his sis! Maybe a reminder here & there, but he does what he is told. My lil girl is so stubborn & hard-headed! Yes, she's 5, & yes, all kids are different. She's too smart! & yes all parents say this about their Kids. She's a great student; & listens well @school,church, tball, etc.@ home it's a different story! She's more defiant to me than her to her daddy. When I tell her to do something, she falls to the floor. She's either too tired, her heart hurts, belly hurts, leg hurts or she thinks she has eczema!
Step1: I pick her up & take her to her room. I tell her to pick up her toys. If daddy's not home, forget Steps1&2. I've taken away toys, gyms,&took her tv out of her br. Discipline,rewards &praises haven't worked. She acts this way 'cause I've let her act this way. Now I see the same behavior in my 3yr old son! How can I fix this before it's 2 late?!?!?
