So I do not know how I am going to survive - DYS DD9 is acting like she has acquired the attitude of a teenager, but in a tiny 9-year-old little body (did she just roll her eyes at me??? What did she just mutter under her breath???). Help! Does this mean that we might be DONE with the teen attitude early (please say yes)??? I hope so, or I might wind up on a funny farm. She's always been super-intense, and never very easy to parent, but I truly might not survive this!
I am seeing a great deal of frustration, and I am wondering if some of it might be school-related. We've been working with her school, but we've not been able to actually make much progress changing things for her so far.
Just to be clear - I am not EXCUSING one bit of her behavior.
If anyone has been through something similar, I am all ears. TIA!
