[quote=Anonymous]The way I handle children like that is that I establish "house rules" in our house. Like you, I tell them "Those are the rules in this house." When they tantrum, I call their parents and explain that their child is having a problem following our house rules and ask that they care for their child. It usually at least gets the parents explaining that there are rules in other people's houses. The one time I had an issue was when I told a child that he could not do something. I think I said "No climbing" or "No feet on the couch". When the child tantrumed, the mother actually told me the problem was that I had said "No". They had never said "No." to their child. I was astonished and just told the mother that unfortunately, my house rules were set and even my children were not allowed to do those things. I left it for the mother to sort out. Fortunately, they were only acquaintances and haven't been back.[/quote]
