My step daughter whos 8 doesnt do as she is told for me.
If she is messing about with something that she knows shes not allowed to touch (like DH gym equipment) when i remind her that she isnt allowed to play on that, and she knows this and will she please get off it.
She then continues messing with it, and smirks at me at the same time.
I then tell her to go to the naughty step (DH is a big fan of this) and she still smirks at me and doesnt go.
I then have to go over to her and lead her by her arm to the naughty step. She does then stay there.
DH does bollock her when she doesnt listen to me as she does as shes told first time for him.
This really annoys me, and i find it very hard to control myself when she sits there smirking at me.
Her brother whos a few years older does as he is told for me no problems.
How do i deal with this?
