[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]13.5 yo has recently been making statements of entitlement -- it is "my job" to do her laundry, she has "no clothes".  These are two examples from this morning.  She has always been self-centered and lacks empathy in many cases.  Do I just ignore these statements next time (too late for today  :(  ) or so I crack down and tell her to do her own laundry from now on...  She does very few chores around here because she can barely finish her homework (great student but excessively slow worker).  She helps out the few times I ask her to -- fold the clothes in the dryer ... But it is not frequent.

If I'm to ignore, please tell me how!  I cannot stand entitled behavior in anyone.

And, if possible, can you be gentle?  I'm feeling utterly defeated by this child.  She has a history of being very challenging. [/quote]

If your daughter is an excessively slow worker, unless there are development issues, I would recommend giving her less time to do her work.  She will always have something to do instead of helping around the house.  [/quote]
