[QUOTE="totoro, post: 228407, member: 3155"] This would be why my in-laws and husband say at times that I am mean. That I treat K worse than N. Well because with most things I can tell N 2-3 times and she will get it. K it is a work in progress. It is frustrating. It is unnerving. It drives me crazy. I have to help her with a lot of things. Some days her anxiety is worse. I have to account for her moods. Some days I hate it, some days I want her to just be normal. I have been working with her on keeping her room just a little bit tidy. So I go though and put everything in boxes or drawers. Easy. I have places for everything. It still overwhelms her, she wants it neat but it overwhelms her. She is 7.5 yo and she acts younger the N who is 4.5. She bolted from me 4 times at the zoo yesterday. She knocked down 2 toddler's, ran into a stroller... At times I feel like I am being mean. But I have to keep telling her, over and over and over... the rules. Because maybe just maybe it might sink in. I had to kneel down before we went into the zoo, tell her the rules, tell her about 10 more times in the zoo. Did she listen? NO I had to keep trying. She broke down after running into the stroller. I had to pick her up, help her hug her, even though I wanted to smack her and just scream, why can't you listen??? It is tiring. Yes I still basket C things when I can tell it is going to cause a huge breakdown. I would start slowly if I were you. Start with one thing, what ever is causing you the biggest headache. Sit her down and talk with her. The I love you, you are a big girl etc. Maybe make a wall chart about what the rules will be. For K this only works for a few days. LOL Start small, 15 minutes of Mommy time. Or a shower 2 times a week to start. (with no complaining) Maybe a reward, tv or a treat that you guys make. This took a long time to create so it will take a long time to help her and you. Go slow and try (LOL) to stay patient. I am trying myself and have been struggling. I have no clue about the porn. I can't get K to stop humping on everything. Luckily she is never near a computer except with one of us. She runs from the room when she sees even a cartoon kiss. Screaming turn it off... poor kid!
