[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He's four. Your expectation are too high. This too will pass.[/quote] Disagree. You should set expectations now, but expect that he won't be able to comply for a while. And not without a lot of good modeling and practice. We also use the hand on arm technique, and I place my hand on top of DD's to let her know that I "hear" her and will respond to her next. We were recently with friends whose 7yo was still interrupting constantly while adults were conversing and the parents responded to it every time. It's unpleasant for everyone and you can help your 4yo do better in this area. (We also learned that we had to stop interrupting each other as well, so it's been good training for everyone in the house!)[/quote]
