[quote=Anonymous]Hold him accountable by taking away the lego set now. He is 5 and you are expecting a really high level of self control. I don't know any 5 yr old who can't get up to the cabinet on top of the refrigerator BTW. You need a new hiding place and put a child proof lock on it. Keep the new place a secret. The level of self control you were expecting from your child is above the level of self control that he has at this age. That is why you should still have prescription bottles tucked away at this point. You have the child you have and he will get more impulse control, but he is not outside the range of normal at this age. Your expectations were outside the range of normal. [/quote]
