[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous[b]]I don't think this is particularly unusual, my DD used to do the same sort of thing[/b]. They have this attitude that whatever belongs to us also belongs to them. You need to come up with consequences ahead of time and tell her the consequences so she will stop. And enforce them. She takes the toddler's lunch? She has to buy his lunch to replace it with an extra amount tacked on for each day she takes to do it. Take her sister's candy (candy in a bedroom? Not a good idea for many reasons) same thing. Make the consequences logical, appropriate and you'll only need to use them once.[/quote] Thanks. I was wondering if this was somewhat typical teenage behavior. [/quote]
