[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure if I'd necessarily lock the door, but I do think this calls for some "cry it out method" pre-teen style. At some point, you and your husband have to go to bed and just ignore the tantrums and whines. And as a PP said, I'd absolutely lose my shit if a kid was jumping on my bed at 10 at night wanting to play. Absolutely no screens (or whatever her currency is) for quite a while if she did that.[/quote] You have to treat the problem, not the symptom. They sound like they are not parenting the kid they have the way she needs to be parented right now. That the dh has OCD is significant. [/quote]
