[quote=Anonymous]A parenting class about backtalk taught me a strategy that really did work. I would say, "I can't listen to you when you talk to me like that, I'm going to leave the room" and then remove yourself. Or.. "It wears me out to be talked to like that so I'm not up for making dinner, sorry. You guys will have to be on your own tonight.." The point is, don't let a power play happen. But instead of punishing try letting your daughter learn the natural consequences of being talked to in certain ways -- it doesn't get them what they want most, your attention.[/quote]
