My almost 7 yr old DD is driving me mad. She seems to be unable to do anything with it being demonstrated, repeated, spelt out to her. And when she can't do something, she ends up crying/screaming, which I'm sure is a habit and put on, but very, very wearing. This weekend she had one piece of homework, her reading book, spellings, and some letters to write. We were at home all day today and I explained what she had to do. I then left it to her to get on with it as I'm tired of nagging her (homework over half term saw to that). By bedtime she had done part of one thing. She then needed reminding several times in the shower to wash herself, rather than just stand there with the water running over her. And then when she couldn't remember where she put her glasses... that was too much and I couldn't help but moan at her. I hate moaning. But I don't know what to do with her. I'm not really sure what I'm asking, I'm just so tired of it all...
