[quote=Anonymous]1. Make sure your requests don's sound like choices. Don't say "Would you like to put on your shoes?" or "Will you put on your shoes for me?" Be direct and make it clear that no is not an option. Go put on your shoes. 2. Do not allow time to move forward until the request has been satisfied. If you say to go put on shoes and he continues watching tv, you turn the tv off. If he won't put down his toys or walk away from the Legos you say "If you don't stop now, these toys will go in time out for the rest of today and all of tomorrow." And then FOLLOW THROUGH on that. 3. My kid honestly does not recognize when she is arguing. I had to teach her that ANY time she says "No, but ..." she is arguing. [/quote]
