My DD8 has been trying to complete one piece of home work since 9am this morning. She is currently in her room, crying, raging, shooting and generally being horrid because she's not getting her own way. The homework is to write a formal letter, which she did in the space of 10minutes. The tantrum began when I pointed out that she should write more than one paragraph. Continued when I gave Herts dictionary and told her to find and correct her spelling mistakes. She is more than able. She putting on an Oscar winning performance while the whole family waits for her to finish so we can go out. Please help me not to completely lose my rag and how I can avoid this in the future, as it's not the first time. Thanks.
