[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am the PP who said Im in a similar situation. However, I actually think I AM starting to resent the 6-yr-old! Seriously, I know that is wrong, and I know that I need to take steps to figure out a solution b/c clearly I am the adult here, but it can be so hard when she acts the way she does. I guess my question is, how much can a 6-yr-old really manipulate/be aware of other's emotions and social etiquette? Because for instance, we have been working on gracefulness with my 6-yr-old DC, so if I get her some candy or whatever the little treat may be, and she acts bratty and doesn't say thank you/whines that she wanted something else instead, how should I handle that? Is that typical 6-yr-old behavior or is that unacceptable? I am by no means completely inexperienced as a nanny, but I am relatively new to nannying for this age group and am not as knowledgeable of what my standards should be for her behavior. [/quote]
