I'm getting so fed up with dd1 taking SO long to do the basics like go and get changed after school, finish eating her food, or even reply to a question that I've started counting and she's averaging 15 - 20 requests and can take up to an hour to do some things. I'm quite strict and she's a bright reasonably well behaved girl, but I realised recently that I've become used to asking repeatedly for things to be done and resorting to issuing ultimata(?). Is this normal or too much, because it's doing my head in!
