Ask one of your childless friends/relatives. In my experience they ALWAYS have the answer....

Yea! naughty step/chair for some chill out time works wonders!and there should be an apology before she leaves!! I think there maybe a bit of attention seeking going on as well.I know she may not have seen as much of you as she would like recently and bad behaviour is a way of getting that attention!!Children are very good at picking up vibes so maybe a bit of assurance that all is ok in your world and the promise of some "quality time" (sorry! hate that term!!!!) together will help. Needn't be anything major.....trip to park,see the xmas lights etc......only if she's been a good girl of course!! If you're not feeling great at any time all children love to be mummy's special helper!! They love that sense of responsibility!!!....well until they become moody teenagers!!!All the best lazy tc xxx

with mine i think was a bit harsh, but to be honest a bit older now and couldnt ask for a more respectful and happy child. just told em daddy was dissapointed they were gutted. for this to work you really really got to impress how proud you are when they do good.
