Question

she's 7 yrs old..and she trys to upset me..and she laughs or say i'm just playing..she thinks it's funny and i'm on the erge of having a nervous break down

Answer 1

take her to a councilller and see if there is any deep problems she has maby it might have something to do when you was carring was u upset all the time was you victamized cos they feel and hear it all when there in the womb thats whats mnake them who they are when listen and feel how you feeling

Answer 2

She's testing you to see how mad you get. That is what kids do around that age.

Answer 3

Get up off your backside and be a parent to her.  You are the parent, you are the one who should be doing something to stop her.  She needs discipline and correction fast.

Answer 4

why do kids do this?

Ans. Poor parenting... permissive parents failing to discipline their children until it's too late. When the parents have finally had enough the children think it's a joke. It's time for you to get serious about disciplining your child.

Answer 5

come on, its fun to bug u'r 'rents. its natureral 4 kids to act like this. trust me *wink*

Answer 6

It's a cry for attention.  She wants your undivided!

Answer 7

First of all not all kids do this....and you shouldn't let this go anyfurther...

Use the stop that, last chance then stick to your threat.....

Hey, if she is doing this to you then, she is doing this with her friends.....you don't want other kids to stop playing with your child because she is being a snot.....she won't be invited to play at other peoples homes...

She is also doing this as school...her education will be effected too!!!

Do something about this now before this effects your child....Its your job to recognize what bad behaviors will have on your child's future....This will have a big effect....

Answer 8

Looks like someone needs Super Nanny.

Answer 9

"i'm on the erge of having a nervous break down"  That's why, you have taught her just exactly what buttons to push and just like a kid she is going to push them.  That's not HER fault.  You are the one who has allowed her to get to you, YOU are the one who put her in control.

Answer 10

Calm down, take deep breaths. Tell her to go to her room, ten minutes later come in and ask why she did that. But, I'm betting she just wants your attention. Maybe kids at school are being mean to her. P.S. use positives not negatives example: Don't eat sweets!!! Eat something healthier, you don't want to end up like me.

Answer 11

remember that children do not think in the same way adults do. their sense of humor, ability to see into the future, and ability to "step into another's shoes" is quite under-developed. just don't expect her to act or think like you do, because she's at a different level. she is learning many different things by interacting with you, so make it positive, no matter what.

Answer 12

my 4 year old does this to me! and my 80 yr old grandma does this to my mom! We have yet to figure out a solution to this problem... and it sure is annoying!! I hope you find a solution because I sure could use one too! (before the gray hairs start coming in)

and yes, I am consistent with disciplining my daughter, even when/if she laughs the entire time.

Answer 13

Umm... ur kid sounds like a brat, but remember she will only get worse if U are mean to her.

Answer 14

she must want sum thing or faddish because of you try to stop

yell or bothering her

Answer 15

6-7 year olds are always acting like they know everything. i babysat my cousin once and he acted liek that. anyway. she might just be testing her limits like seeing how far u ll go before u put ur foot down and say something is an absoloute no no. hopefully the nono wont be in the form of a nervous break down. i would talk to your husband about this and kids are naturally annoying.

I wish you good luck and good health.

Answer 16

people on here are always saying "its ur fault ur a bad parent!" BUT they are on here asking the same questions!

Answer 17

lmao. She does because she can. You need to teach her that it is not on. Sit down and explain it to her. Then tell her if she keeps it up she will be in her room for 5 min.the next time 10 then next 15. She will get the message

Answer 18

sum kids are like that and will prob grow out of it!! good luck!

Answer 19

just remember what it was like for you to be a child

trying to get attention when your parents were annoyedd with you its not her fault she doesnt know

Answer 20

This is the time where you are reminded that she is looking for guidance and you to act like a mother not a school yard friend. When she tries to upset you, react like a mother and say " I dont know why you are acting like this but its not acceptable" and end of story. She is playing you because she can. Be the MOM not the pal and she needs boundaries. There isnt a seven year old living that could upset me. Why, I am a mother and I have boundaries with my kids.
