[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 575309, member: 84"] I sooooooooooooooo do not miss this part of those years. *sigh* Katie is already getting attitude from Kayla and the child is only 12. Given the history......I'm not overly surprised. I AM surprised at how well katie seems to be handling it. Seems Katie has a friend who happens to have some pretty darn good parenting skills and they're rubbing off.......better yet, they're working. Not perfect, but then it won't be with a tween / teen girl. Kayla *thought* Nana would side with her and found out quickly Nana will back Mom up AND reinforce it instead. LOL (I admit it is easier when you don't have them under your roof 24/7) As per the door slamming..........there are remedies. 1. you could temporarily remove her door until such time her 'tude changes or 2. have her open / close the door properly X amount of times to help her remember next time that slamming a door is not the proper way to express yourself. Neither is fun, both are usually effective. Can you tell I can't stand door slamming?? I don't do it, and I don't put up with it either. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
