[quote=Anonymous]I haveva 14 yo DD and this week was very rocky. First, these kids are back to school and getting up really early. Second, they are still not back into a good routine for a newcschool year. Finally, they are dealing with lots of new classes and teachers and that can be really stressful. So, my DD has been short, cranky, and not the most pleasant person to be around. I simply refuse to interact with her if her tone and words are not acceptable. The crazy part is she often doesn't realize how off her tone is so by calmly saying I can not help you (listen, find a solution, meet your needs) right now she also learns how she sounds. I think this is a teachable skill. [/quote]
