Ah hmmm, perhaps...but since I am the one who teaches her, I know she is using those skills on me as well--so I'll let her work me, but she has to earn the win. Not just to be right and justified all the time, but by her deducing her reasoning is where the real win comes in. So therein is the real goal of mine, her learning deeper, obvious to her or not
LOL, nothing like watching a mini me in action.
thanks for the post!
ps- I didn't ground her in the end because she was aware of her actions and understood she was 'projecting' her bottled up feelings onto one person who had not much to do with it but took the hit.. it wasn't right, but it was honest.
I must say, talking with my 8 year old is one heck of a trip!
