[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tried a number of things to punish DD for her behaviors and none of my efforts worked. I was so angry when I was trying and trying to make her better and it wasn't working at all. Now I've backed off a lot and instead focus on keeping myself healthy. I started seeing a therapist, I try to get enough sleep, I try to get a workout in most days. I pretty much changed my mindset. I told her that I am here if she wants help and I try to stay quiet when she speaks to me so that she will tell me what is going on. It is very hard not to give my opinion but I'm working on it. I try to be grateful for what I have and enjoy what I have. [/quote] Taking similar approach. How old is your dd? [/quote] Yep, same here. I told my husband we should sell the house when she’s 18 and buy a one bedroom with no room for guests.[/quote]
