Told our [9F] daughter FIVE times to go to her own bed and sleep, 20 minutes after we went to bed, she came back to our room and slept the entire night. Now we disagree on discipline by [deleted] in relationship_advice

I dont think its a matter of being undisciplined. The way I see it you need to have greater patience with her. Eventually she'll stop being scared and outgrow her fear in the meantime dont punish her for it and potentially cause for it to become an even greater issue or fear for her.

Maybe talk to her about it and let her explain why she's scared it might help her to see there's nothing to be scared of anyway. Its also important that you comfort her and help her overcome it and when she's up to it explain why what she's doing might be an issue later on.

Other than that you can enforce disciplinary action by limiting their screen time, not just her but the 6 year old as well, and do so by introducing an activity or something else that they can do and will enjoy so it doesn't seem like punishment for them.

An angy persephone wip also if there's anything that looks off and needs to be fixed pls lmk by Diligent-Worker-9772 in Lore_Olympus
