[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 181367, member: 1233"] You may have to set some funds aside to go buy her other clothing, then go through ALL of her clothing and get rid of whatever is inappropriate for someone her age. Then go to the thrift stores adn get some cute outfits. Thrift stores often have a wide range of items at inexpensive prices. For the not leaving you alone, Marg and terry have great suggestions. For teh negativism and arguing, I suggest you read Love and Logic Parenting. The website ([URL="http://www.loveandlogic.com"]www.loveandlogic.com[/URL]) has great tips, outlines of all the books (there are books for parenting teens, special needs kids, younger kids, etc...) and resources for parents and teachers. Even the stuff for teachers has been helpful here. I think if you look for the "broken record" technique it might be helpful, esp with the arguing. The explosive child book is also invaluable for helping with this stuff. Hugs, you are a good big sis to want to help. And to give your mom breaks! [/QUOTE]
