[quote=Anonymous]Parent of a child with pretty major medical issues that required lots of meds starting at 17 months, and also called fragility that made holding him down not a safe option. I am a big fan of the Ellyn Satter technique here. Put her in a high chair, or other contained space. Draw up the syringe, tell her you'll give it to her when she's ready, and then just wait. Maybe build with magnetiles, or look at her books, or do something she'd like to do, but don't rub it in. Just let her know once or twice that when she's ready she can take her medicine and come join you. Then when she does, make it fun. [/quote]
