This mom is having problems with her daughter. Read her dilemma, check out other iVillagers' responses and then add your own advice!

"I am really in need of good advice on ways to get my kindergartener ready for school without a power struggle. Every morning my daughter and I engage in the same struggle. She is slow to listen and once she does actually get dressed she often takes off her clothing a couple of times complaining it's too tight or too loose. The same struggle happens when getting ready to go outside. It takes at least 15 minutes for her to put on her coat, snow pants and boots. Always the same complaint of too tight or too loose ... Any advice on how to make it all smoother in the morning would be great." —ca_enger
