[QUOTE="Andy, post: 167989, member: 5096"] Just a small suggestion: Get one of those small (8 1/2 X 11) dry erase boards. Write a positive statement about your daughter on it (or several in different colors) and put in her room where she can read it every day. Change the statements every few days. So that she knows the statements stay true, on board with changes, put "And ......" 1st board, "Danae is beautiful, fun, kind, a fast runner, is loved by her family......" 2nd time, "And Danae works hard to be respectful......" 3rd time, "And Danae likes to use pretty words that make people feel good (she hates it when her anger makes her say bad things) ......" 4th time, "And Danae is working on controlling her anger...." Know what I mean?? I bought a board for difficult child to do his math home work (kids like dry erase boards). One night when he was having a hard time getting his homework done and I was frustrated in getting him to do it, I wrote something like, "difficult child is very smart. He can do his homework. He can get his homework done before bed time." For some reason, that got him going. Give Danae a journal have her copy each board's message in it so she can read all of them whenever she wants. Go ahead and put in the "Beautiful, loved by family, ect." every few times. (You can send the same message as often as you want - go with the most current issues and some may keep occurring over and over like the "I am ugly" statement) You can get her a second dry erase board for her to write down how she makes these positive things happen .... (How are you going to stay beautiful? Be kind to everyone, help when I can, take care of my physical well being - teeth, bath/shower, hair, eat good foods, ect.) [/QUOTE]
