[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 677224, member: 18958"] How does she behave with your wife? Are you her main target? What are your wife's thoughts about your interaction with your daughter? Who does she hold responsible? You are the adult and you will be held responsible if behaviors cross the line. If your daughter is so provocative that you are losing your temper, I think you have to protect yourself by limiting your interactions with her. Perhaps your wife can take over, if she is more able to interact with her without the situation exploding. It sounds a little bit, like you may be the scapegoat here. Or it could be a family issues that your daughter is responding to. Instead of looking at the situation as a problem with your daughter solely, it might be helpful to think of it as a family dynamic. Even though she may be provoking the problems it is easy for one person to be held responsible. One person is never responsible for all, either provoking or solving it. There are family systems therapists that will help you understand and to work on family dynamics. There are also behavior therapists that will work on implementing behavioral modification plans, teaching parents how to get control over problem behaviors, or work with the child to get control over her own behavior.
