[quote=Anonymous]OP here- I thought I would provide an update as a cautionary tale. My daughter is no longer 10 she's 12. I no longer "yell" at my daughter. My approach was causing a chasm between us. I've radically changed the way I talk and deal with her. While she can be moody, unmotivated, and difficult at times- yelling at her at this age just makes her shutdown. I've become more understanding and less judging. She's still a straight A student but the approach has made all the difference in the world in terms of our home environment. [/quote]
