[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, I have posted about this before and nothing has changed. DD breaks things of mine on a weekly basis. Well, maybe it is less than that but the point is she has been explicitly told (since it happened so often) that she can not touch ANY of mommy's things. Well, DD strikes again. Broke something I just purchased. In fact, I found it in her room! And she didn't tell me about it. Not happy with that either. In fact, I am FURIOUS. She is six. She knows she shouldn't be doing this but she does. [b]We are not talking an accident[/b]. This was clearly her playing with something that did not belong to her.

I have tried all the suggestions given when I posted about it before. Time outs/discussions/making her pay it back through chores/loss of priveledges, etc. It has lessened I suppose but it just needs to stop. I tried to find the thread posted recently on this topic where the son broke a vase but couldn't find it.If anyone can locate that, please post.

In any event, I am at my wits end so this is my new plan.

She breaks something of mine, [b]I "accidentally" break something of hers.[/b] I know it sounds crazy but nothing else is working. [/quote]
Did she break it on purpose or did she break it accidentally while playing with it? If you "accidentally" break her toy, how will she know that you are enacting revenge for the broken item? Your logic is very flawed and will never work. [/quote]
