[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] In the mornings, he should just go out to the car and wait, give her a deadline for when he will leave and if she misses, he should leave. [/quote] This, right here. My DH is really struggling with the loss of control that comes with having a teenager. And his little girl is changing and it's really freaking him out. So he tries to exert more control, and it becomes a constant battle. What I've been working on with him is doing the above. She knows the rules, she knows how to read a clock. Just concentrate on the things you do have control over. If she's not in the car when it's time to go, she walks. Don't argue, don't fight.[/quote]
