My daughter won't stop being a bully to her younger sister
My 9 year old daughter will not let up on the name calling and critisizing of my 7 year old. No matter what I try to do, she just won't stop calling names or saying mean things about what she does. I am at my wits end on how to stop this. Please give me some advice on how to stop it!!!
I don't think I have any advice for you because my 7 yo does this to his 5 yo brother. When I hear it, I put him in time out. I try to talk to him and ask him how he would feel if someone treated him that way. I am trying to teach my kids to treat others as they would like to be treated by others. So I'm trying that approach but it is slllloooooooowwwww going. Anyway...I'm going to be keeping an eye on this thread for new s!
I have 2 boys that quite a bit and will call each other names!! Since my youngest is PDD/ODD we have been implimenting 1-2-3 Magic!! Let me tell you it works!! You have to be consistant and will have days that they are non-stop like mine is today! ing
But I will over come and defiet it!! Mom is the winner in the house not them!
Try it and let me know how it workds for you! We also do a penny reward chart. If you want more info on that just let me know.
My sister and I are 2 years apart. She learned to finally give it back to me and then it was an all out brawl almost every day. This didn't stop until I moved out. Sorry, I'm not much .

I think that's pretty much normal. My boys do the same thing. It's like no matter how much you talk to them and punish them they still do it. I was the oldest sibling growing up and I think I bullied my brother and sister also.
It's just one of those things kids need to grow out of.
But, in the meantime, grounding the one who bullies, and giving them a lecture is probably the best way to go.
