[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 580629, member: 1722"] Liahona~ Believe me, if not for privacy reasons, I would videotape her and post it. It would be funny if it weren't being inflicted upon me. She gets this most defiant look on her face and staring right at you; she stands there with her right hand on the railing and her left foot hovering over the next stair. And she waits, staring at you, eyes boring into you, challenging you. Susie~ I actually have tried your suggestions before (except making her late by acting like her) and they haven't worked. I think it's because, mostly, the problem is rooted in her ODD. As in, she is doing it purposely as a way of acting out. Timers infuriate her and set off rages. She blows through deadlines whether they are rounded or to the minute. I have broken down tasks. Tried contracts. Had discussions on the importance of urgency and promptness. I have streamlined processes. You get the idea. [/QUOTE]
