[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last night to my surprise, my 7 year old and 6 year old daughters were not so nice to me. It's very unlike them. I simply asked them to clean their room and it turned in to them throwing things around, banging on the walls, mocking me, laughing at me while I tried to talk to them and threatening to pack their things and move to their aunt's house forever.

It honestly hurt my feelings and I have no idea how to deal with this behaviour because this is all new to me.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.[/quote]

What were the consequences of their behavior? You can talk to them all you want but if they incur consequences (that they really dislike) for their behavior then talking isn't going to change anything.  You can try time outs sitting in a chair someplace boring like the hallway, you can take away screen time/favorite toys/eliminate desserts/treats.  I would never let our kids (same ages) mock me and behave that way without there being MAJOR consequences that would deter them from doing so again.  Good luck [/quote]
