[quote=Anonymous]above PP here again. I want to point out that in the example cited, the kid is a dream kid, right? After empathy, the kid responds with "I guess I have to try harder." What if you're kid doesn't? Either they're too young or too immature or too ... something. After empathy alone, I'm guessing my kid would then say "yeah, she is the worst. I hate her." Then I would say something like "that's not fair or nice to say to her. You loved her last week. You're just angry because she embarrassed you today, which I understand, since I would be embarrassed too." Last year, DD would calm down and agree with me. Nowadays, she'd roll her eyes and mutter under her breath, if I'm lucky. Or scream at me that I'm the worst and stomp off slamming doors. Ugh. HELP![/quote]
