My 9 1/2 year old daughter seems to be doing this more lately. If I've told her something or have told her sisters (7 and 4) to do or not to do something, etc. Seems, she pipes up and tries to step in like mom. I've explained to her that it is not appropriate for her to do that. However; if she's playing or with her sisters and one of them is in danger of being hurt, she can step in and be the big sister.
Sometimes I feel like she's trying to be the grown up. Thoughts? Posted on 02/26/08, 11:02 am |

I think its a 9 year old thing. My daughter does the same thing with her older sister and little brother. Her older sis is a little slow so she feels like she is the oldest I guess..I try to explain this to her too but, it seems to go in one ear and out the other.

ARGGG! My SD is lik this and it drives me crazy! I feel like she's mentally critquing eveything I do. All I can say as long as she is not influencing your other daughters to ovrride your authority, try to ignore it. Try to let her know although you knows she cares, there is a line between caring and being overbearing. Good Luck With This!
