I have an 8 year old daughter. Do you have any children?
I do. I have two children. One is in his 20's, and the other is one.
That is quite the spread. Congratulations on the "new" little one. Boy or girl?
She is a girl. I think that it is funny that we have two, because I guess at one time in some countries, that was all that people were allowed to have.
Yes. Do you have any parenting tips? I try to be firm but fair with my daughter  - but she is at a very "trying" age.
Mine is at that age already. I guess patience is a virtue is all I can say.
Amen! I just need to teach it to her.
Patience
Patience (or forbearance) is the ability to endure difficult circumstances such as perseverance in the face of delay; tolerance of provocation without responding in annoyance/anger; or forbearance when under strain, especially when faced with longer-term difficulties. Patience is the level of endurance one can have before negativity. It is also used to refer to the character trait of being steadfast. Antonyms include and impetuousness.
Scientific perspectives.
In psychology and in cognitive neuroscience, patience is studied as a decision-making problem
she was a provincial girl. If you read the story that's what she is. If you read the original novel we hardly added anything. The movie is exactly the book. I added one sequence that I wrote that Freddy Raphael had nothing to do with. In fact Freddy Raphael had nothing to do with that script, it was so funny. There's two things he wrote. One idea was the little miniature painter and the other thing was having that scene play in the baths... Everything else was the book
