In August, my daughter started kindergarten. Big milestone, tears shed, blah blah. My daughter is a sweet-natured, well-behaved and well-mannered little girl - I get compliments on the job I must be doing as a parent!
Then she started school.
I swear to you, it's like having a different person in the house! She is full of attitude, defiance, and ANGER. Picture a disgruntled teenager and how difficult they can be. Now picture that attitude coming out of a 6 year old girl with the face of an angel!
She's not like this all the time, thankfully - most days I have my daughter. But about once a week, I have a huge fight with the demon spawn that must be posessing her.
Has anyone else experienced this sudden change when their child started school, and if so, how did you handle it?

I am facing this situation right this year, she started kindergarden and it is my worst year. She cries all morning, she lies to me, she wants everything she desires and if not pleased, she will shot and cry all day. She is only three, I am wondering what she will do at 18 years old..........wooooo
Well she wasn't never like that, she was fun always laughing but she changed a lot this last two months. I talked to the teacher as trying to figure the problem, but with no sucess, she just told me not to please her and that at shcool she plays and seems happy. She is causing me problems, since I think I have to change my working hours, because When I accompay her to school she goes, but when my mother or her father take her to school she shouts and screams. For me is only attention, but what else can I do, my mother has given up and they are making me really depressed.

How do you handle it? Well the best way you can find, without being illegal about it! I guess it is just the change of enviornment that they are going through plus exerting some independence and boy do they ever know how to exert it huh?
It will get better, then worse, then better again! LOL
I better stop encouraging you now I suppose!
Hang in there you're in for a ride! You'll do fine and believe it or not so will she...eventually! LOL
