[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]13.5 yo has recently been making statements of entitlement -- it is "my job" to do her laundry, she has "no clothes". These are two examples from this morning. She has always been self-centered and lacks empathy in many cases. Do I just ignore these statements next time (too late for today :( ) or so I crack down and tell her to do her own laundry from now on... She does very few chores around here because she can barely finish her homework (great student but excessively slow worker). She helps out the few times I ask her to -- fold the clothes in the dryer ... But it is not frequent. If I'm to ignore, please tell me how! I cannot stand entitled behavior in anyone. And, if possible, can you be gentle? I'm feeling utterly defeated by this child. She has a history of being very challenging. [/quote] If my 12 year old told me " it is your job to do my laundry" , that would be the LAST time in his life I did his laundry. IN his life. Hear me? You have a BIG problem , OP. Face it head on now because DD will be behind the wheel of a car in 3 years and she sounds like she has not a clue on how the world operates. Eiteh ryou give her a kick in the A++ or some one in her near future will.[/quote]
