I am truly at a loss. I am an older mum and have a daughter who is almost 8. She struggles in school (slightly dyslexic), is very independent in nature (tests every boundary), and is still showing signs of separation anxiety. My husband thinks I am too lenient and she manipulates me all the time, but I just can't agree to an overall 'supernanny' approach to things - meaning being firm first and sensitive second. I love my daughter and sometimes feel that life is short - I'd rather see her happy than upset all the time. But do I have it all wrong? Am I here to guide her in spite of what she feels?? I hope I'm not doing her a dis-service and would really appreciate guidance. Thanks.
Shall we reboot our cartoons thread again? 😁
