[quote=Anonymous][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] It's not "weird". The solution here is not to brainstorm ways to give the 7 year old more control unless the goal is to make sure absolutely no one will take the job in the future. I'm trying to imagine showing up and being briefed on what parts of the toddler's bedtime routine the 7 year old is actually in charge of. :roll: [/quote] On the other hand, I’m completely okay being told “Larla reads to Larlo every night. He enjoys it and she practices her reading. She’ll let you know when they’re done if you want to wait downstairs, or you can go up with them.” Each family is different. I expect to be told how they do things, not do them my way.[/quote]
