[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell her she needs to cut it out. Tell her she needs to learn to entertain herself. She can listen to music, but tomorrow she needs to entertain herself for ten minutes. Then Wednesday, for 20 minutes, then Thursday, a half hour. Sit and make a list with her of things she can play/do by herself. She can read, play the piano, make up dances, draw, etc. Also, set up play dates for her. Do you live in an area where she can ride a bike up and down the street? [/quote] This response is so sad. I feel so sorry for your kids. I would never tell my kids to "cut it out" that they want to be around with me. OP why can't you fold laundry after she goes to bed? Ask her to help you with things? Do a bit of both, not push your kid out the door like PP does. [/quote]
