[quote=Anonymous]OP: thanks for all the feedback. Interesting how some things came up that I never thought were relevant (looks).

My daughter is actually very beautiful and I'm not just saying that as her mom. She's just genetically lucky in that regard and will probably end up to be a stunning adult. But again I am not sure that is relevant.

She is not a bossy jerk. If a child gets hurt on the playground, she is the first to run over to see how she can make them feel better. She really does care about others and can empathize.

I think it's more of an annoying bossiness. "Jane, you use the blue crayon to color Elsa while I color Anna's cape green." If Jane wants Elsa to be red today, that will not be acceptable and dd will not shut up until Jane is coloring Elsas cape in the most perfect frozen esque blue in the crayon box. Or if Jane wants to color her own picture of Cinderella...
Not happening. I've never really seen her get into a showdown with another child because she is so bossy that they all just listen.

At home, she does not run the show, but there are a lot of tears and a lot of screaming matches and dramatics and tantrums. But no- she does not run the show at home.. not for lack of trying though.[/quote]
