[quote=Anonymous]At this age your kid may be realizing her academic skills are lacking compared to many of her classmates and is lashing out. Also a good chance she is not getting enough wriggle and dreaming time at school. Sounds like she might be creative? I agree with the PP who suggested more downtime. Maybe the school has a counselor who can work with you and the teacher. There are creative activities that re-enforce the pathways of the brain your DD will need to succeed in school. Also once she is doing better and becomes more confident of her abilities the misbehavior may peter out. Also I gotta say it does NOT sound like whatever discipline you've been using is working. If you fold now she will walk all over you to her own detriment later in life. [/quote]
