[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 13 year old is not a morning person either. We had a talk about it after school because she comes home in the afternoon with a much better disposition. I told her I will not engage you in chit chat in the am, I accept that you are not a morning person and we can sit in silence for the ride to school, but you cannot be disrespectful or yell at anyone in this house because you’re grumpy in the am. She understood (again because we discussed it during a time when she is in a better mood) and it has gotten so much better. [/quote] This is what I would do. I would NOT let her talk disrespectfully to you regularly though like you have been letting her do. I don’t think I’d have to say anything though…my teens know when to shush it if I look at them in a certain way and lift an eyebrow. I get a “sorry mom”.[/quote] Cool story, you are really special![/quote]
