Idk what the deal is with my 8 year old but I’m gettin tired of the attitude and her throwing temper tantrums like a 2…

My 8 year old boy cousin is like that .

Maybe she wants one on one time with just her parents

@momofboth, I don’t know what her deal is. My 6 year old and 1 year old are constantly crying because she’s being mean to them.

My 7 year old is like that since last school year. I’ve noticed a classmates attitude she picked up😡 my neighbors daughter who is 7 is also acting up. Drives me crazy!!!!

@motherof3boyz702, we’ve been doing that and she’s still got an attitude. I even took her to get her nails done and she’s still being rude and nasty to everyone

@juliam27 wow really, that usually does the trick. Hmm maybe taking away her favorite things for. A while till she gets it

@amberspringer if I see one of there friends acting rude I don't let my kids hang out with them and I'll tell them why

@amberspringer, I get on to her and talk to her and it does nothing. My husband talks to her and it does nothing. My mom even had a talk with her and nothing. We have tried asking her why she’s like this and all we get is idk and silence. Even when we talk to her she ignores us. I hate that. Since school has been out she’s been on and off with the attitude and it just keeps getting worse and worse

@motherof3boyz702, I took away her 3Ds and her tablet and I took away all of her favorite toys and nothing. I told her if she can’t act right she can’t have her stuff.

@juliam27 send her away to camp 😂 jk

Damien's going through a fuck-you stage too

@leroydoom, She’s so unappreciative right it’s driving me crazy. We do nice things snd her attitude is just like screw you I’m doing my own shit

It might be a good idea to get help from a counselor or a therapist to see why her attitude has been so bad. Or does she have any favorite people like an aunt or an uncle ? Maybe a friends mom ? Sometimes a kid can feel like they can talk more freely to someone they don’t think they’ll get into trouble with. She might just not know how to communicate the things she’s feeling or doesn’t feel like she’s able to. So instead she acts out badly.

@deadlylove, she loves my little sister. So I can probably get her to talk to my daughter.

I noticed my oldest attitude started to change a bit at 8yrs old..because...she ended up starting her menstrual cycle that year she's 10 now and still has an attitude here and there. She's in that preteen stage and those hormones are just off the chain lol. Truthfully the more consistent and patient I am with her there are alot more "good" days 😁😉 hang in there love. This to shall pass.

@juliam27 omg sounds like my teen

@juliam27 I punish my kids by not letting them play and reading and writing they hate it but it works

@riasm85, thanks. I’m trying to be patience but since I’m so close to the end of my pregnancy I’ve been an emotional wreck.

@juliam27, I’m sorry. My daughter won’t listen most of the time and back talks. Nothing works. I’m about to send her to military school 😂

@amberspringer, I told my mom I was about to do that lol

@juliam27, lol. It may work or slap us in the face

@amberspringer, earlier we were at the jail house picking up my little brother and I told her if she doesn’t listen I’m getting an officers and having him take her back to a jail cell and she got scared

@juliam27, lol I’ve done something along those lines. Mine was like no I’m ok

@amberspringer, I’m like well quit acting like a dang fool and I wouldn’t have to be so mean lol

@juliam27, exactly! Mine gets mad if I have to raise my voice or punish her. Says I’m not being nice and that’s why she won’t behave 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ girl please!
