[quote=Anonymous]Kids need to learn they can't have everything they want it the exact second they want it. Also, policed "sharing" isn't a useful life lesson either - when else in life can an adult walk up to another person and demand a term with whatever is in that person's hands? Our childs' preschool uses the approach that toys which are being used are not available for "sharing" until the child using the toy finishes with it and returns it to its place. Children are encouraged to be mindful of taking turns, but it is not enforced or required. It works. The kids learn pretty quickly if they hog the prized toys, they won't have anyone to play with and wont have any friends. [/quote]
