[quote=Anonymous]it sounds like you are doing all the right things. You are debriefing what your kid experienced, they are not picking up the habit, and they are learning that different people act differently and that is ok. If your kid started doing that, I would worry. If you start to get the "but Johnny's mom..." then you talk more about it. The biggest thing would be when you care, does your kid respond the way you want. So, no popsicle at 10am, but we can have one after lunch and your kid mopes. Problem. Kid says cool. Then all things are fine. It is the same to be me as you go to the pool and someone else orders a snickers and coke from the snack bar. My kid will look at me like - can I? I say no or not now or whatever, and then it is over. You are not giving into the tantum. But your kid is benefitting from it, which is ok. [/quote]
