[quote=Anonymous]Never ask a question of a preschooler when you know the answer and it deals with misbehavior. Never ask a question about misbehavior and expect an honest answer of any age child (older might surprise you). What I do is reward initiative. “The milk spilled! Are we going to do [xyz 3 minute special thing] after we clean it up?” I do not reward if the child did it on purpose, and it usually only takes one time trying it on purpose to realize. I also reward honesty. If a child tells me they misbehaved, were just going to talk about it and work on a strategy for next time. If I catch a lie, there’s a consequence as well.[/quote]
