[nagdu] Is this possible?

I would figure out why she's whining first before resorting to
corrections. She could be upset by something and that's why she's
whining, and even then, correcting might exacerbate the issue. Try
telling her "no" or "that's enough" in a really firm voice to see if
that helps with her whining. When she veers too much to the right,
tell her careful and try moving your body to the left so you're sort
of forcing her to go in the direction that you want her to. It could
also be a body positioning with you. Have you tried asking the school
to come out and work with you on these problems.

recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity:
but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on
their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible." T. E. Lawrence
