[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This behavior did not happen overnight; are you are overly permissive parent? If you don't hold your ground and have her respect your boundaries, when she hits 16, you will have a larger problem on your hands...[/quote]

I second this.  tweens/ kids/ teens must learn respect, it's not inherent.

If you do not sit them down and teach them manners and respect, you will have problems.

!!!Get their attention!!! Take away their privileges immediately when they do something like being disrespectful.  Point out that is not what is expected. Tell them you will not allow that behavior and they will lose their (insert privilege here, phone, internet , tv ect...) for a day because of it.

Tell the what to say instead. Teach them there are consequences when they disrespect you.  If they are like that to you, they are shitty kids to other adults/ teachers and friends.

And their behavior will get worse long before the mature and turn into young adults with who also do no respect authority figures.  [/quote]
