[QUOTE="DDD, post: 461044, member: 35"] Mind you I am far from a perfect parent so I don't have "the" answers. on the other hand I sure have tried most things in hopes it would make life easier for the family, lol. One thing that had some success for me years ago was apologizing to difficult child after the "dirt settled" by simply saying "I'm sorry I made a poor choice earlier today when I X. Sometimes it is hard for adults to behave properly just like it is for kids. Please accept my apology." With that difficult child it set an example that she later would follow in reverse. Did it solve all the problems? Heck, no. But it did help her reaslize that everyone has bad moments...not just her. DDD [/QUOTE]
