What other people have.....

Poke with a stick or break MN! It seems to be broken tonight, so I'm here! And I keep checking, but I'm normally on here at odd times of the night when no-one else is here. Mostly because I have sleep issues. What time are you normally here?

DD is almost 12. Whenever she is doing something she shouldn't (hurting her brothers, breaking doors, screaming etc), it doesn't seem to matter what I do, it just doesn't get through to her, and 1/2 an hour later, she will do exactly the same thing.
