[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would lean more towards the ignore than the swift punishment. If she says something snarky pretend you don't hear. If she sticks out her tounge, say "thats rude and disrespectful" and then walk away. If youre in the middle of an activity, stop. If shes being willfully disobedient, like you ask her to clear her dishes and she says "no!" and sticks out her tongue, then you remind her what the consequence is and calmly ask her again. This sounds like attention seeking, which is why i made these suggestions. Are your younger kids going through any changea right now? Did one of them just start school or potty training or anything like that? If so she may sense your attention is on them more than her and this is her "please pay attention to me again" reaction.[/quote] My neighbors 8 year old kid once stuck her tongue out at neighbor while we were out. Another kid walking by said "what are you 2 years old?". Never happened again.[/quote]
