Lola, I believe most people here, like me, are not child psychologists or have dealt successfully with a problem enough like yours to be entirely relevant. Your daughter has already reached an age where it must be difficult to change how she is being raised, and her father and you do not agree even on the basics. If you are the one to discipline her, then you will be the bad guy, and first spanking at her age is unlikely to make you closer. In some cases, it can lead to the child running away or acting out in some more dangerous way.
Again, I'm not an expert, but the key I believe is finding out what is driving her to rebellion and acting out as she does. As her mother, you should have some idea of her as a person. Is she just going through a phase, or are the problems nothing new? Have you sought professional help? There are family counselors trained for this. There may be no quick and easy answer, but you might get headed in the right direction, and open up meaningful dialogue. If something feels wrong, always get at least a second professional opinion.
