[quote=Anonymous]The sound of my kids crying is knives through my skull. It sets off 1000 instincts. And I have to consciously make choices. It is clear you both need a plan and a follow through plan. Do you use a sticker chart or 123 Magic or some parenting philosophy? As much as it is nice that you tell her you will take it, that does not help her learn any tools. She needs tools to help her set and manage limits with kids. Let her pick the method you both can live with and then practice, practice, practice. You are right that she is reenforcing the behavior by giving in and it will be really hard to break that. It will suck for a while but if she agrees that it is important, you can work together. [/quote]
