[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell your 9yo she has to read in her room for an hour every day. My 8yo has to read 30 mins, it gives me time to read the newspaper. Go out for a walk every morning, yes my kid is with me but she’s not mentally draining me if we are outside and both getting exercise and fresh air. If you are not doing screens, screens are ok. Maybe reward the 60 mins of reading with X amount of screen time. [/quote] This is a great idea! I feel your pain. I had three in diapers at the same time-------one then twins when he was less than three. It's exhausting for many years. Teenagers can even sometimes be worse (now teaching two teens to drive--that's stressful....) take care of yourself first, then you'll be better with her. What about teaching her to cook with you? That has been great for years with my daughter[/quote]
