[quote=Anonymous]To OP, I’m glad you are listening to some of the advice! My kids can be difficult and I’ve had to learn to pick my battles. I was one of the posters who told you to let her sleep. I still have rules and things they need to do but also follow natural consequences now and yell a lot less. It works better. For example, I’ve stopped doing their laundry. If they don’t have clothes it’s on them. If they don’t have their uniforms or practice gear ready it’s on them. I’ll calmly tell them they need to do something before practice or before I’m driving to the and we simply won’t go. It’s time to leave and that frying pan is still dirty in the sink? You better wash it… I’m reasonable, but firm. I’ve let it go on sleeping. That’s on them as long as they let me sleep at night and wake up for school. [/quote]
