Question

My six year old (only child) never listens to me, I get so upset anymore I just let her get a way with this?

Answer 1

plan on one h**l of a future if you do....it only gets harder as they get older...Who is the parent here you or her?

Answer 2

I would like to say you are the parent this is your offspring and she/he is only a mere 6 years old they do not run the house but at the moment they are and they are making your life h**l and they need some boundary's to abide by they will be more happy within themselves and you will be to and you will have total controll, it will not be always a bed of roses and smooth sailing the kid will test there boundary's as all of us did when growing up. they are pushing there boundary's to see how much they can get away with you need to  set the guidelines and put consequences to those boundary's if they are broken *please if you have a partner/husband ) you both need to sit down together and have a big chat and work out your agreed guidelines and your views on things parenting you wont both always agree on but things like manners /table manners and stuff like that and forms of discipline you will work out or compromise on but don't  not support each other in that act or your child will take control of the whole situation again.  

Answer 3

Be a little more strict. Call Nanny 911 or watch the TV show and get tips.

Answer 4

Maybe she needs someone else to talk to about something?

Answer 5

Children actually feel comforted by consistent rules and boundaries. When you let things slide, you are contributing to a sense of instability at home. Please sign up for a parenting class and pick up some parenting books... because you love your child and want what's best for her.

Answer 6

Get a copy of the book "How to Talk So Kids Will Listen and Listen So Kids Will Talk" by Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish.

Answer 10

I am a supporter of good old fashioned spankings.  

Answer 11

You have to put her in timeout when she does not listen.

Get a little timer set it for 6minutes (one minute for every year of age).

Even if she gets out you have to keep putting her back. Also start the timer over.
