[quote=Anonymous]OP back. I talked with her about plans to leave the poop today without a meltdown and she agreed she could do it. I played up what a big kid she was and reminded her during pool time we’d be leaving at a set time and she needed to show me she was a big kid. I didn’t threaten cruelly, but reminded her she needed to act like a big kid to do big kid stuff including birthday parties. She left with no incident, which has not happened lately. Praised her all the way home and she was beaming. So, maybe not the best parenting method but the threat of losing something she wanted to do worked .. today at least! [/quote]
