Attitude

It is like reading my reality as well 🫠🫠🫠 No advice unfortunately 😔 😕

Oh I nip that shit immediately. I don’t give chances. Literally none. The minute it happens we drop everything, you’re done BYE off to MY room (the most boring room) you go. I close the door and he has to sit in there for 10 mins and I come back and we talk about expectations and how if it continues right back to the room he goes. Another thing is I make sure he doesn’t go too long without snacks or water. I keep snacks with me and water at all times so after pick up from his activities or classes I make sure he’s fed. That brings the attitude waaaaaay down most days.

I think they learn this from school 😭😵‍💫

Same here! We have 2 six year olds and all they do is fight 24/7 and its getting physical now. Im so exhausted from being a referee and being sassed all day 🥴

My girl is absolutely killing me with the attitude. First it was the "you don't love me!" Stomps away and goes to her room. Then it was "you hate me!" Stomps to her room. Now it's "you don't love me and you treat me like trash!" And cries and stomps to her room.... All because I won't give her popcorn or I make her do her homework or I say she has to go to bed 😒 so over it. I'm probably going to just run away when she hits puberty. Lately she's been saying no and basically going on strike when she really doesn't want to do something she has to so I tell her what she's going to lose if she continues and I stick to it. One thing I noticed that kinda helps is I remind her how much it sucked when she couldn't have her things or couldn't go on the playground after school and she'll reflect and then I warn her if she continues it'll happen again and then I ask if she really wants to continue and she'll usually stop

Well she loses privileges like getting to play on the switch or her tablet. She doesn’t get it all day. Just two hours a day. I’ll take it away for the rest of the day. If she continues I usually take it for the next day. Then she does good and earns it back. I have taken it away for a week before too.

Definitely having this issue 😕 to make it worse I promised myself we wouldn't be a household that yells or anything like that and somehow still the second I try to correct the behavior you'd think I'd just smacked the bejeezus outta her or something with the way she immediately starts frantically crying. I'm like "dang girl, all I said was 'that wasn't nice'"... It makes corrections so hard because she's so sassy and honestly straight up mean sometimes but also so so sensitive. I'm at a loss 😭

I have this too! But with my 5 year old twins. Not so much my 2019 baby

Please help me to. I have an 8 yo doing this
