[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]12.08 here. It’s weird to me that everybody is willing to dismiss this your girl’s feeling and reasons for her actions. As a nanny and babysitter, I see the reason behind the behavior as much more important than imposing a punishment that doesn’t change a child’s mindset.[/quote] First, I don’t see that at all. OP was falling all over herself explaining the older child’s thoughts and feelings. Second, this isn’t a toddler - it’s a nearly seven year old who should be able to control destructive actions regardless of the reason. Locking a door is absolutely unacceptable and dangerous behavior. Not listening to an authoritative figure is also unacceptable regardless of the kid’s reasons, problems or motivations. It’s not her mindset - it’s her ability to control her behavior. The kid is almost seven!! [/quote]
