| WC, it sounds like you are doing the right things. It also sounds like the problem occurs when she has to stick with daddy (kids often decide they want one parent over another, so this is common and no reflection on him) So, my question is, what is Daddy doing when she acts like this? If she does these things when Daddy's in charge of minding her, it doesn't matter what YOU do, it matters what Daddy does. You need to walk away and let Daddy do it.
HE'S the one who needs to make it clear that he's in charge and won't put up with her nonsense. (tone of voice, removing her from the situation, distracting her, etc.) And he needs to not take it personally that at this time, she prefers to be with you....next month she'll be Daddy's girl. |
