[quote=Anonymous]My now 8 year old was like this, especially activities that got her worked up like a bounce house or a friend with a trampoline. Make sure you praise A LOT if she leaves well. Agree that a giant future consequence is not the way to go. It’s not enough in the moment but feels mean later when you enforce it. I think reminding the day of about the kind of behavior you expect is the best thing. Also my daughter was very motivated to do better once she understood how painful it was for her friends (she witnessed another girl having to be carried out by parents and realized how it looks, and that was probably the end of it really. We don’t have this issue any more. Short of really significant SN you won’t either in another year or so.[/quote]
