Did a BAD thing this morning-I sent dd to school in her pj's

And she was screaming so much when I left her there another mum came out and asked if she had had an accident . They have implimented a leave your child at the door policy, as the school is very small, and so the nursery nurse teacher asked me to leave and said she would get her dressed, so I did. I feel so mean-she is a horror most mornings re getting dressed, doing teeth, and doing hair, and I decided that I had to get tough or she would never stop it, so I did. Please tell me I did the right thing-she had so many chances this morning and blew them all, was saying "I will only get dressed if you take me here" etc, and I am NOT bargaining over getting dressed in the morning!

Ha ha, dd is the other way round, brushed neat hair on the way in, sucked, chewed and pulled into straggly chunks by lunchtime! All has been fine in the Paws house in the morning ever since, and even got a well done from the teacher for my style of parenting! Sorry I haven't been on for a few days, I wasn't ignoring you all

Good for you. Don't feel bad. My 2 DD are as strong willed as this and if you don't have strong willed children, it's hard to appreciate what it's like. When you have tried everything, you have to stick to your guns. Sounds like it worked and I would do the same.
