My daughter 7 years old, her IQ level is 4 steps above higher than her grade.But she is quite selfish and rude. My son is 5 years old , EQ is very good, like to share, polite,and listen what other people say.But he is not interested in learning. I and my husband run our own business in oversea.Firstly my mother looked after them but she got difficult to teach my daughter's manner and end up give up that she doesn't care for my children.So we decided to stay with them and take turn to do our biz. Even i have a lot of things to do for my biz, i come and stay with them for 10 days, go and do my things for 20 days.Meantime my husband looking after with my mother and maid.But we don't want to give up that my daughter can't use at all her character.I try to teach her some manners. Sometimes i can't control my tamper and scold her.But I know that they love me very much and they need me as full time mum. what should i do for her?

hi aorgaeni many children are difficult to bring up. even if you become full time mother i dont think they will mend their ways a good teacher is required for them who has to handle them separately. and with business you may not find the right time.

thanks, juhi06, I know that I can't be a full time mother but I try to give my time as what mother should do. Bringing up the kids is not an easy task. Nowadays, a lot of new things are coming up in front of us and too compitative world we are in. I want to take part in different roles also not easy.
