[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry you're going through this! I hate fighting with my kid. I agree with the posters talking about how she can earn the money for her beauty products. Two important factors: Earning the money will demonstrate the value of the items she wants, AND earning what she wants will give her a valuable confidence boost. My kid just saved up enough to buy herself a nice laptop (to replace the old but functional hand me down we'd given her) and her mood is through the roof. She's so proud of herself. She had wanted an even fancier one, but when she realized how many hours of babysitting would be required, she adjusted her expectations. I think that's a really valuable bit of maturity. Maybe if your daughter realizes that the beauty product in question is 8 hours of babysitting (or whatever), Maybelline will start to look better :) [/quote]
