[QUOTE="Tiapet, post: 156455, member: 455"] I'm going through the same thing with my 11yo. I don't do anything for her. In fact At times I will tell her come talk to me, ask me again, in 5 minutes when you can talk to be with respect/nice. Sometimes it actually works other times it doesn't. Let me tell you though, we're talking high levels of disrespect like F* you, shut the F up, etc... very very foul language! When the cursing steps in there isn't any "come back and talk to me in 5 minutes". It's a done deal! Period! As for the homework help, yes, it could be if you aren't doing it FOR her you aren't helping. Mine was just like that until I flat out said I am NOT doing it for you. I will help you but I'm not doing it for you. I had to literally break it down into tiny tiny step by step, me being there each minute to help her though. She doesn't process things even for the normal 11 year old emotionally or otherwise. We've finally got that figured out but what we haven't solved is the piece of "does she get it, if she gets it does she even care". That is the biggest puzzle piece to be yet be solved and THEN maybe we'd really be able to help her out much better other then limping along as we are now. [/QUOTE]
