[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Ask Lisa podcast discussed this recently. Basically, she said it was normal, but you need to address it..[/quote] Yes but how?! I’m a DP but very similar issues, though my 11 yo hasn’t started her period yet and I can’t imagine how much worse it will get when she does![/quote] I'm all about natural consequences. First, every single time, I'm like: you will not speak to me that way. And I won't have a conversation w/ them if they're rude until they can take a breath and apologize. I'm not going back adn forth with them, not threatening to take the ipad, just: I am not going to engage w/ you speaking to me like this. Then when they're in a good mood is when you talk about strategies for them to not BE rude when they're upset. [/quote]
