Is there a male figure in their lives?
Sometimes when there isn't a male figure in your home, the oldest seems to take it to his duty, and as young as he is this is what might be happening...
The BEST advise is to TALK to your children, setting rules, and advising them of consequences for breaking rules...
Teach them about the consequences in all they do...
And also its not all about punishing them only, praise them for the good that they do...
Stick to the punishment, if you say 1 wk, make sure is the entire week not just 3 days, this way you are reinforcing the consequences...

I know how difficult those years are...

I'm the only parent to my son(18) and my daughter(19)...
They never had a male figure in their lives...
It was VERY difficult, but I had to stay strong, otherwise they would've just walked all over me...

They turned out to be GREAT INDIVIDUALS!!!
I AM SO PROUD OF THE WORK I DID AS A PARENT!!!



I Love My Furbabies Nygee, Gizmo & Gypsy!!
