[quote=Anonymous] How far away is the birthday? I would use this time as a "good behavior probation period" and really work WITH her to earn the party. She was born, so she gets a birthday. BUT, how she treats her family and friends is what earns her a big celebration. At six, she's old enough to understand what's at stake. You need her help in order to bring the party together, and if she's not helpful, well, what can you do? Cutting it with that kicking your seat would be a strong first step. See where this approach gets you. You always have the chance to not allow it to move forward. Planning in step with her positive involvement would give her opportunities to skip the ugly stuff and choose to behave as you expect her to--especially now that she is six (or seven?) years old.
