Hi sisterhood,
My 8 yo girl is out of control!!!
She NEVER listens. Laughs when you tell her off or punish her, yells back, and refuses to go to sleep.
It's getting to the point where her younger brother is now acting the exact same way.
Dinner time and bed time are disgusting in our house. Constant yelling and crying.
It takes up to an hour to keep her in her room and actually go to sleep. I am over it! I feel like my heart is about to explode. I can't take it anymore.
No matter how much time we spend with her it's never enough. She will still act the same. We keep her up a bit later and that's not enough either.
We have tried everything. Grounding her, cutting out her after school activities, no TV or tablet, not yelling, yelling, silent treatment, toys EVERYTHING, But nothing works.
She just doesn't care.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what we can do? I am at my whits end.
Thanks X
Out of control 8 yo daughter!

Have you seen a paediatrician? Sounds a bit like is could be a disorder of some type. Either ADD or ADHD. You could always try changing their diet, cutting out preservatives etc there could be so many reasons why she is acting this way.
