[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sh*t, I'm doing it all wrong. My 6 year old does not take her own baths, wash her own hair or put herself to bed. WTF.......how do I stop this runaway train?[/quote] Teach her how. My kids have all done their own showers/baths since they were 5-6. They get ready for bed on their own, dressed for the day on their own. These are all just teachable skills. You just need to spend some time teaching, and have the patience to let her do it herself with your guidance, giving less and less guidance until she is doing it on her own. [/quote]
