[quote=Anonymous]DD is in 6th grade now. When asked, she will say she really likes school, and her friends are clearly important to her. She has gotten very good grades, and likes most of her classes. But in many ways, she is also a hot mess. I never expected to be having hygiene battles at this age, she is trying out different personas, and some of her personas are too damn mouthy, she is moody, puts off school work until the last minute, and then makes the whole house crazy the night before it is due, doesn't' get enough sleep, is eating us out of house and home, is always late. She vacillates wildly between teenager and toddler in her behavior. I think most of this is normal, but it is exhausting.[/quote]
