[quote=Anonymous]It really sounds like you are CONSTANTLY on her case about something, and then coming down hard with her for every transgression. Not only is it not working but you really risk some serious rebellion when your daughter is old enough. You need to step back NOW and reevaluate your approach. First of all, she may have ADHD and it certainly sounds like she has executive functioning challenges. So you are punishing her for things that are much more difficult for her to control than other kids. Rather than punishment you should be creating systems that help her -- checklists, for example. And give her rewards for getting things done rather than punishments. Finally, its just cruel to go ape shit over her eating potato chips when you have them in the house. Ease up.[/quote]
