[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d let her get detention. Also I’d make sure she understands that people aren’t going to respect her given that type of behavior - probably already don’t. But I wouldn’t be addressing this through consequences. To me it looks like she lacks the skills to control her temper and to need to teach that to her. [/quote] This and you are already working on ways to address the quick temper. Hopefully she matures in a couple of years. Sorry, OP. My oldest was pretty terrible with behavior around that time and we tried everything. I’m sure the school thought we were awful parents. He was a different person by junior year with maturity. We never stopped trying though. No magic way to stop it, stay calm and try to avoid power struggles at home, they don’t work. We are having some issues with our 9th grader now. He keeps telling us to wait two years. It doesn’t mean we don’t keep trying. [/quote]
