[QUOTE="Andy, post: 211652, member: 5096"] I am so sorry for the awful morning. I am glad that husband realizes how he contributed. Dads are usually the very last people to notice how their daughters are growing. Being grumpy in the morning and not wanting to be teased like she may have been when she was younger is part of growing up. How husband and others made her laugh when she was younger will not work these days. I do understand the need to discipline her over her choice of using the knife. I don't know that I would use the sleepover as that choice of discipline though. Can sending her to bed early tonight and/or having her write a letter to you explaining what else she could have done? (Maybe using her voice instead of nasty looks? Coming to you if she feels dad was not listening?) She can apologize to husband (he also should apologize to her.) [/QUOTE]
