[quote=Anonymous]Similar issues with my 7yo DS. Definitely becoming very defiant lately. He would rather read than have screen time, so that's not a very effective consequence for us. I was so frustrated last week, that I start a check system. If he doesn't follow an instruction the first time it's given, he gets a check. 3 checks and he has early bedtime Friday and no family movie night. He REALLY cares about that, so it's kind of working... but not sure how to enforce following instructions the rest of the week if he loses Friday movie night on a Tuesday for example. I do like PPs approach of more of an incentive chart for rewarding good behavior rather than punishing for bad behavior.[/quote]
