Vent time!!! I am so over the top with my own 4 girls...I chose to do daycare so I can be home with my kids and not miss out on their lives and do fun activities with them....but lately I feel as if staying home with them is doing more harm than good!
My oldest is 13 and next oldest will be 11 next week...they are both becoming VERY rude and mouthy...I know they are going through some hormonal changes but wow, I don't even want to be around them most of the time...most things that come out of their mouth is negative....when I raise my voice at my 11 year old, she gets even more mouthy and always needs the last word, she will not stop!... they are rude to the little daycare kids a lot....I have taken their phones away until they can straighten up.
My youngest will be 5 in November and she has always been difficult...always does what I tell her not to despite a zillion time outs. She picks up a lot of bad attitude from mostly my oldest daughter (who has ADHD). I feel like I'm at a loss with her because she is highly stubborn and disciplining my older 2 is making her behavior worse.
My almost 7 year old is usually very good but seems like the last year she is going downhill too....not listening to a lot of things I tell her to do (or not to do if it's something bad).
Usually my best 2 girls are my almost 7 year old and 11 year old...I know my 11 year old is going through pre-teen stuff....but all together I feel like they are getting out of control!! I have tried being calm with them but they get my blood boiling so bad they NEED to be yelled at or they will NEVER stop arguing.
It boiles down to not listening, being rude, and constant arguing. We still have 2 more weeks before school starts and I feel as though my nerves won't hold up that long. Why do my kids feel the need to upset me so much? I don't tollerate disrespect and they disrespect a lot!
Thanks for letting me vent...please tell me I'm not alone....and ANY and ALL suggestions are welcome!! I am at my ropes end, I don't know what to do with them anymore...yelling doesn't seem to phase them, taking things away works only short term. HELP!!
