11 year olds like to watch dvds, play video games for younger kids, even guitar hero is great for hand eye coordination. They love to play dress up...like give her a little mini makeover with nail polish, makeup, do her hair and let her wear some of your clothes that makeup can be washed off of. Let her know that she's too young to wear it out of the house but in the house she can have a lot of fun with it. Thats all I can think of for now for a girly girl. I hope things get better and she starts treating you with a little (I mean a lot) more respect.

Good luck,
Kimmie

Try playing a board game, letting her watch TV or a DVD or playing video games, or card games. Or play Truth or Dare, even if theres only 2 of you it will seem exciting to her and might be fun for you too. Or play hide and seek. Good Luck!

She's 11, she's a big girl - she's responsible for her own 'Entertainment' or did you sign a contract indicating you were responsible ?

Amblessed's right. One of the best things you can do for your child is to let them know what's allowed (e.g. you can invite friends over at these times of day, you can watch this much TV a day, whatever) and then let her decide for herself which of those things she chooses to do. Once she knows your house rules, which apply while she's this age, don't let her tell you she's bored - just say 'You are responsible for your own entertainment' and let her have the fun of taking appropriate responsibility!

Amblessed - I think we've been reading the same book!
