[quote=Anonymous]My 7 year old daughter is rude. Bratty. Disrespectful. Whiny. And I don't know what to do about it. She is typically developing and bright. She is successful in school settings and social settings. But she talks back a lot. For example, if I say "Grab your shoes! We leave in 5.", she replies "You grab them.". When I tell her to switch off the TV, she glares and me and turns the TV up a notch. We have tried a whole slew of things ranging from punishing her to insisting she rephrase her comments to ignoring to killing her with kindness. My son is 18 months older and has always been respectful and pleasant. Lots of "Thanks, Mom" and "Ok, sure!". I am dreading the teen years and more importantly, I just don't want to raise a total spoiled brat. What works for you?[/quote]
