[quote=Anonymous]DD 4 picks really random moments to just refuse to cooperate or follow a direction. For example at home I might ask her to put her shoes away and she will stand up and stare at me and refuse to do it. She won’t speak, she won’t argue, she won’t do anything else but stand there in some kind of strange protest to the request. She does this at preschool to. The kids have to say “here” when they are lining up and sometimes she will just refuse. She would stand there for hours, for no reason at all other than she didn’t want to. She very verbal, very social and a generally pleasant little girl. If you impose any kind of consequence for not follow a direction she will scream. The strange part is often hours later she will say “now I’m ready to clean up.”  “Now I’m ready to say please/thank you.” Everything is on her terms. There was an issue today where she just refused to come inside for playground, once again for no reason other than she wasn’t ready right at that moment. They had to carry her in to keep class from being out of ratio and she screamed for 45mins. How do we stop these ridiculous stand offs. No amount of negotiation or bribery works. [/quote]
