Hi aurora and welcome to the forums. I think that a parent should always stick by their child, other things being equal (and probably things not being equal). That is what family is for, in my opinion, but you need to continue to talk to her about her behavior. ADHD children can be very impulsive. That shouldn't be held against them, but worked with.

i have a tendancy to let them pay the price for their mistakes, within reason. so i guess it depends on what the consequences will be. when they are little, the price is alot smaller than when they are teens. so if you're going to ever do this, now is the time. our kids are impulsive and i don't want to hold it against them but we aren't always going to be there and they do have to learn about consequences. good luck and welcome to the forum. karen

Welcome Aurora, I don't think I did that yet Any how, sometimes it's not always bailing you child out that solves the problem. I let my kids get their share of a reality check and explain to them that they don't need to be a know-it-all and brag about things. My daughter sometimes gets on a high horse, and hurts to see her get chomped down, BUT if she would have shut her mouth to begin with, she wouldn't have that problem. She's learned that I WILL call her on things and that if she is in the right, I'll recognize it and bring it to who evers attention. If she's wrong, I let her know she needs to realize where the line is drawn for being polite turns into obnoxious. BTW, how old is your little girl?
