Looking for some advice on wether I'm expecting too much from my step daughter, 6 and a half.
She has everything done for her when she's not with us but my partner and I expect her to be a bit more independent. When I say that I mean, tidying her room, getting herself dressed, finding her toys she's lost etc. Things I'd expect a 6 year old to do (I've taught year 1 for 8 years).
She NEVER turns off her bedroom light, I ask her every time but it's not sinking in. Do you think I'm being unreasonable to expect her to remember? I'm going to start getting annoyed with her soon.
