Hey,
First post.
My step daughter has been having some behaviour problems recently which we have been finding it difficult to deal with. She is very clingy to her dad and although has a very mature mind is very immature and babyish when it comes to bedtime or doing anything by herself. She needs my partner to be with her at all times and won't go upstairs by herself yet is very difficult and does not listen to him when he tells her off for not eating with a fork or when she refuses to go to bed. To top it off she sent me a nasty text when she was not with us with middle finger emojis as I feel she is directing the frustration towards me now her dad is beginning to be more strict. How do we deal with this as it is causing a strain on our relationship? She is 8 years old and we have her every other weekend and once in the week.
