How do I get My daughter to listen to me

My parents have never been tough on me. My mom does YELL! It bothers me sooooo much when she yells at me. i guess thats why I hardly listen to her :( My Dad on the other hand, well, when I was going through my WHATEVER teenage stage, my Daddy sat down and talked to me like an adult. He doesn't yell at me and he doesn't tell me what to DO! Weird, huh? I think not he was tricky! He would tell me "it really hurts me when you dissapoint me" or It upset me and your mother that you would do this, or i thought I raised you to be a better person! I always felt sooooo bad! I would think twice about things!

we have a grandson which is 3 years old and he is doing exactly what we don't want him to do, then we tried reverse psychology, we tell him to do something, but he did not... it is hard to discipline kids at that young age,but at least we show them what's right and wrong. try reverse things you want him to do.. i hope it helps.

Well when I was young I was like that, that way my parents use to control me using back gear, what things they wanted me to do they used to tell me not to do, so I did and viceversa, For example my mother wanted me to wear a particular dress she used to say oh this is not good so that is what I used to wear.

No point smacking her as that just makes her cry for a while but doesn't address the problem. I would take something special away from her.If she has a fave toy take it off her and tell her it stays with you until she starts to behave.Alternatively don't allow her to watch her fave dvd's or tv programs.Remember, you are the adult.

be very consistant one night my son wouldnt go to bed i had to take him back ot his bed 45 times in one night before he finally went sleep dont let one thing slide

Have you thought about changing the way you to tell her to do something, maybe a short explanation to why you are asking her to do something. As for discipline i believe in rewarding good behaviour and ignoring bad behaviour ie shouting tantrums. However if she is doing something that needs to be dealt with like breaking things hurting others etc , put her in a safe boring place for a minute of every year old she is. hope this helps

I was that way when I was young. My mother had a real rough time with me. If you've read any of my posts you'll see where the situation of my stubbornness has gone. Unfortunately, I have no idea the best discipline for your daughter. But you'll find something that works. If not, then at least you tried to do your best.

We have the same problem, i also have a 4 year old daugther she will not listen to me, if she does she will just listen for a few second. There is a study that during this age baby has a little listening ability,. So we will just adjust to them and still try to talk to them always i think they will listen.
