My 6 year old daughter is a bloody nightmare in the mornings. OK, I know they all are, but I am getting to the end of my tether. I'm crying just writing this, it was such a battle to get her to school today. She will just lie there while I am getting myself and DD2 ready, refuse to wear what I put out (it's school uniform ffs)and generally play me up, wind me up, until I am ready to just give in and cry. I've tried bribery, begging, ignoring, I even drove around the corner to scare her the other day, and she just didn't care! It's getting so I don't even like her sometimes. And the weekends are worse, we can never make plans for anything before mid-day, as I just can't get her ready.
Her attitude does suck at the moment, she is very much a highs and lows kind of girl, little in between. I don't want our relationship to be like this anymore, please help!
