My daughter is not listening to me at all. Whatever I say she would show as if she is not bothered. And I know that she has heard me as when I talk about something that really matters to her she responds immediately. As of now she is just 3 am really putting in efforts to get her attention. What can be done at this front?
I am sure if your child does not listen to you, you might be repeating what you said again and again. My first suggestion would be to stop repeating your message. Maximum twice not more than that. If your child does not respond in 2 times she is not interested so better leave it for sometime. Do not nag her and am sure slowly she will start paying attention to what you say.
I had similar problem with my daughter. Then I analyzed what was going wrong and I realized that somewhere it my my behavior that was coming back to me. Sometimes when I was too busy and my daughter came to me to talk about something I just ignored her. Seeing this she also learned the skills.
Realizing this I started improving my habits. If I was busy I told her that once I finish my work I would come back to her and I did the same. Slowly I saw a drastic change in my daughter's behavior.
I would suggest you to look back at how you have been with your child. Then try to analyze what might be wrong.
You also ignore your child for sometime and he will definitely start listening to you. I am not experienced but just putting in my idea.
I have a feel that you might be objecting on whatever your child did. And speaking at so many incidences would give an impression to your child that you would just be telling her what she is not supposed to do. Start praising your child and appreciating her efforts. Sometimes ignore something which your child and it is not harming in any way.
If you want your child to listen to you just stop yourself from instructing him every next minute. Because in that case the child assumes that you are asking him not to do something every minute so why to listen to you.
Another thing to do is do include some praises for your child in your conversations as that is what your child loves to hear. And if you are doing so regularly he will pay attention to know if his acts are being appreciated.
These few things have worked with my kids so am sure it may work.
