[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 155045, member: 3419"] Yes, those behaviors can be hereditary. Yes, the divorce has made her angry. However, The Explosive Child is a good place to start. ANY kind of redirection at this point sounds good. For ex., with-the lipgloss, my kids would beg and beg and beg, and I'd say no repeatedly, and one day, this lightbulb went off in my head and I said, "Wow, that is really cool. What do you like most about it?" And after difficult child showed it to me, he moved onto the next toy, and the next, and because he was allowed to express himself and sort of play with-it in the box, he didn't need to buy it so badly. In short, he forgot! What would happen if you told her the lipgloss was very pretty and you started looking at other colors? Just to show her you're interested instead of immediately blowing her off and saying, "NO!." And then distracted her with-magazines? And things closer to the door? I mean, kids aren't stupid, but it has worked for me. I believe in a multi-pronged approach. Therapy, medications and common sense. No, one, single thing will work. Take care. [/QUOTE]
