[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]2) Noticing the small things and complimenting them. Not big accomplishments but little ones, like "I saw your brother took your toy and you thought about getting angry and then didn't. Thanks for that. I saw it, and I appreciate it." [/quote] I took a parenting class that recommended this. Next step, they said remove the "thanks for that" or any "good job" that you might be temped to follow up with, etc. Just point out the positive behavior and leave it out there for the child to draw their conclusion.
