[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I too would have probably done the same. In fact, I've threatened it with both my 3yo and 6yo (which made them change their behaviour IMMEDIATELY). Actually with my kids, I tell them to go up to their room and don't come down until they are ready to be nice/talk nice, etc. You could do this with your 12yo. It will put the ball in her court - she can choose to skip dinner if she wants to keep up the attitude OR she can come down and eat if she's ready to change her way of acting/talking. She may decide to come down long after you're done eating, but at least the choice is up to her. [/quote] You could try this, yes. I would likely have done the same you did, OP. Especially since she was being nasty about helping make supper. Either send her to her room, or she only gets what she helped make.[/quote]
