Hello, I’m asking for prayer for my daughter Hannah. She’s a bright spunky 9 year old girl who I love so very much. She just has a hard time listening and when asked to stop doing something or if told no, she doesn’t react well. Even throwing fits or swirling into rage over it. Please pray for both of us! That I would have wisdom as mom for how to help her best and for her heart to be open and grow to be a respectful and kind girl that I know she can be! Thank you
Hi,
Does she “raise a fit” and then comply with your instructions?
If so, she is just being feisty. That will serve her well later in life
She will not let people push her around.
May I suggest, when she gets like that, let her have a couple of minutes to vent her frustration.
Then, talking to her in your caln motherly voice, explain why you said no ur stop or whatever.
You can end the explanation with to the effect of “just beig a mom that loves and cares for you.”
As she hears this over the next few times, she will start to realize it for herself. “She’s not being mean to me, she’s being a mom.”
See if you can make a behavioral change in your daughter’s thinking.
Now, let’s pray
Heavenly Father, we come before you with hearts of gratitude. You sent forth your only son as a sacrifice for us. We are thankful.
Today we bring Hannah before you and we was ask that you would soften her heart. Help her understand that when her mom gives her.a task/duty/command it is out of the love of a mom rather than a taskmaster. Please strengthen the relationship. We ask for this in Jesus name; anen. Thank you Father.
Blessings
