[quote=Anonymous]He's probably just repeating language/behavior from school and he needs you to help him understand that it doesn't fit with what you expect and who he is. It's not too young to teach values and it's a perfect age for him to get tangible examples of how what we say expresses or contradicts a particular value. So, if you have a value of loving and respecting each other in your home, then saying "whatever" doesn't fit with that value and is not allowed. Give him replacement words that are acceptable for when he wants to express displeasure.[/quote]
