O.K. I will do this and hopefully things will start to go for the better because I have done everthing to this point and nothing has worked and i love my daughter but will not tolerate this sort of behavior from her!

We're all behind you. We know it is less than fun being manipulated by a wayward. But being empowered and having a plan helps so much.


What would you do if you were not afraid?

Girls are girls. We have a bosnian friend who throws tantrums and is very emotional. Her H always calmly responds and never budges. He manages her very well. It takes a strong man to manage a strong willed wild person, but it can be done.

Mel is right though, never reward a wayward for their bad behavior. Or anyone else for that matter!

They have eblaster for cell phones now and it runs about $65. It is really good! It works on Androids and blackberry's.

Ooh yes the put downs! I forgot about those days. I have a first class degree, I am my friends go-to girl for fun and I am hot (scientifically proven) but as soon as his A with a dumpy moron began I was stupid, boring and old. And I believed him.... doh2

Waywards all the same Im afraid.

Always reminds me of the lyrics to 'something inside so strong'

Brothers and sisters
When they insist we're just not good enough
When we know better
Just look 'em in the eyes and say
I'm gonna do it anyway
I'm gonna do it anyway

That song could have been written about dealing with a wayward...

You and your 4yo daughter are sleeping in the same bed?

Think about how an angry wayward could "spin" that bit of information.
Get back in your own bed and get your daughter her own.

Thanks! smile

Just finished reading the whole thread here... Strong... Be strong... Not a bully, but unmovable in your position. Like a freaking mountain, not a volcano. Quiet, unmovable, majestic.

In MB terms, no angry outbursts. no disrespectful judgments, just be firm as heck in your boundaries and let her marvel and rage against an unmovable object. Eventually the raging should stop.
