[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Try sitting in her room with her while she falls asleep. Bring your tablet and read. Put on your headset and listen to a book or podcast and just sit there while she falls asleep. Maybe she needs some reassurance right now. There is nothing wrong with comforting her. [/quote] +1 My middle needs this extra comfort and togetherness. I think that "attention seeking" is such a negative term. When kids seek attention, they need something--comfort, attention, relief, etc. I think you need to figure out what her need is and find a way that works for you to meet it. Also agree with the PPs that mention she might be tired. 9 year olds tend to have a lot of activities and we often forget that they need much more sleep than we do. I learned this the hard way with my oldest.[/quote]
