I am at my wits end. My 6 year old DD screams at me all day long at every request, calls me mean, does not listen and just generally has horrible attitude. Then at the end of every day in bed she tells me I am the best mummy in the world.
I feel I am doing a lot of screaming in exasperation, as after the thenth time asking nicely with no result I lose the plot. I don't know if my screaming is making her scream, but I do ask nicely over and over but nothing happens. When you are on a time line to get to school you have to do something.
I just dont enjoy her at the moment. I love her and adore her little personality but I dont enjoy the behaviour. My 2 year old in comparison is a dream!
Help me!!!! What can I do???!! I have a reward chart which sort of works. But it s not enough. I cried to her the other night saying i was just sick of screaming all the time.
Do most of your 6 year olds listen to you and do what they are asked?
