Re: Dealing with defiance?
Just a quick thought... would it be possible to have a little garden bed specially just for her? My mom was a big gardener too, and one of the clearest things I remember about that age was her staking off the last few feet of two of her planter beds, and giving one each to me and my brother. I even remember what I planted. Radishes & Zinnias. Having my own garden to tend kept me busy while she was working on the rest, and helped me with the lesson of "if you stomp on your flowers they won't grow".
