[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't having a "D" on your report card and transcript punishment enough? [/quote] How does she feel about the D? One of my kids was prone to self-defeating behavior, and therapy helped a lot with that. Does your daughter not care (or say she doesn't care) about doing well in school? Does she claim to care but get discouraged easily? Does she try hard but it all blows up anyway? I will say that I am a "let them fail" parent to the extent that I believe in natural consequences whenever possible, and logical consequences if the natural ones are too long-term or if I don't think a child is thinking clearly. I don't let my kids do whatever they want indefinitely. [/quote]
