[quote=Anonymous]and before anyone comes at me for abuse - DS is extremely well loved and secure toddler. Our frustration is he is perhaps too confident and knows he can walk all over us. We do try replacement behavior, redirecting, the usual parenting suggestions, but often it does not work. Here's another example of something that happens nightly. DS starts banging on the table during mealtime or throwing food. We take away his plate. DS: I want my food back! DH: Why did dada take ita way? DS: Because I hit the table DH: Are you going to stop if I give it back to you? DS: Yes. We give it back. 2 minutes later destructive behavior returns. DH: Dinner is over (takes away his plate, removes him from table) DS: I want my food! DH: Why did I take it away? DS: Because I be mean. *repeats* [/quote]
