My 10-year-old daughter has recently developed a mouthy attitude. She thinks I know nothing and no longer listens to me without talking back and hits me. I have had enough.

If your daughter's behaviour has changed more or less overnight, it's important to explore whether she's experiencing problems with peers, at school or in class. Kids will often take out their frustration on the ones they love most. The fact that your daughter is hitting you and from the tone of your complaint, I urge you to discuss this issue with a counsellor, physician or a person you respect in your community as soon as possible!
