[quote=Anonymous]Raising of my voice and speaking in a firm manner like: "Stop playing with the blinds! Do not chase the cat! Get off your brother's head!" I do that, oh, 20 times a day. It's always one phrase that needs to be immediately obeyed, and then I resume my normal speaking tone. It works for my boys. Yelling is accompanied, in my case, by a red face, a feeling of exasperation, and is only slightly within the boundary of having control of my emotions. And it's not just one quick imperative sentence, but a whole paragraph of words that probably go in the kid's ear and right out the other. It is not effective. And happens maybe once a month.[/quote]
