[QUOTE="Shari, post: 411923, member: 1848"] How do you get along with the tutor? Cause I'd put the tutoring and showering right back on her and see what happens. Give the tutor a head's up that she's not showering (hint, hint, tutor, say something about the stench), and let difficult child own the consequences of that one. She can tell tutor she's not participating, and she can hear tutor's response to not showering, as well. As for sleeping, if you were pausing the movie to deal with difficult child, she was successful in engaging you. I do know how hard it is not to respond, but you really need to find a way. Lock yourself in your room, and don't turn off that movie. If you can't ignore the banging, do like Janet said, walk her to her room but don't speak to her at all. Or lock your door and turn the volume up. Would step-sister enjoy sleeping in a tent in the living room, since they share a room? Or maybe even difficult child? So you could utilize Janet's other suggestions? The tv and books work well for Wee (once we got him to stay in the room - which took a LONG time...) [/QUOTE]
