I often post in lone parents, and I accept it's part of her being let donw by dad. missinghim, him lettingher down.
Yet, I am so aware that we are alone, that I put this newbehaviour soley down to that, yet surely its not just becuase of the situation with her daddy?
She is 51/2, and quite frankly I am getting really down myslef about her attitude.
I know she can't always be polite, becuase of her age, and she just blurts things out, but she has taken to really bursting into tears if I say no to almost anything.
Her manner is sukly and rude, and so unlike her. She is very bright and funny, and in the top of her class. Witty and all those things, but it seems she can behave very grown up when it comes to arguing and basically making me feel crap too.
I dont know i just feel like I am not getting something right, in the way I am dealing with her. I try to be firm, wihtout shouting, I try to understand without letting it that understanding actually excuse her.
help really. I find our relationship so intense sometimes.
