[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pick your battles.  And they need to be in much greater control of their life.  You sound controlling.  You shouldn't be asking your 14 year old to brush their hair or finish their food.  Do they enjoy their paid activities?  Maybe it's time to switch.  Not doing their chores or being disrespectful would result in loss of screentime in my house.[/quote]

I do agree op is too controlling that’s why this is happening your kid is old enough to do their ie. Hair big whoop they won’t omg OP shut up.

Your kid is not the problem op you are

The hair is the least of my worries. But just so you know the extreme nature of the problem, she has often gone more than 2 weeks without brushing her hair.  2 years ago she finally asked to have her hair cut very short so it would be less of a hassle to keep brushed.  But she still regularly has to cut out pieces of her hair because the knots and matting gets so bad and she can’t get it out on her own and won’t let me help get them out either. [/quote]
