[quote=Anonymous]OP here - thank you, keep them coming!

Immediate reward is interesting. She loves candy but can obsess about treats (even when getting them regularly), so I might keep that as a backup. Perhaps I can turn her Lego advent calendar into a prize system vs Christmas thing? I like that.

She needs to wear pants (it’s snowing today, but if it isn’t she can wear shorts). I’ll definitely see if I can get her to change into boyshort undies, right now she wears briefs that are two sizes too small. She mostly wants clothes to be tight. Except when she isn’t in this phase and then she just wears clothes. We’ve struggled with picking out pants, even when calm. She will like them for a day and then hates them again. I spend so much money on clothes (and shoes!) that I kind of want to give up trying to buy things she likes because it is so minute by minute. For example, she put on new sneakers yesterday, did cartwheels, said how happy she felt in them, gave me a huge hug, and then when I touched the brush to her hair she threw a giant fit about her shoes. Sigh. [/quote]
