[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I should say that he has ADHD and traditional punishments like taking things away aren't a good strategy. As for the pool situation, I'm not sure how you woul envision removing a 6 year old boy from a swimming pool in a way that is t violent or at least physically domineering and aggressive. I'm not going to physically drag him from the pool. I left. I can control my behavior not his. But I would like a positive discipline method to help get rid of what has become a habit.[/quote] Your excuses for why you "can't" discipline explain why your son is acting like this. You refuse to be the parent. Deal with it then. [/quote] Do you have an ADHD kid, PP?[/quote] Oh please! She literally can't even figure out how to exert her authority to get him out of the pool when he misbehaves, this is not all due to the ADHD and had a good deal to do with the fact she lets her son control her. Making him leave the pool is absolutely a valid consequence for calling your mom stupid at the pool. ADHD or not, that is a reasonable and logical punishment and she says she can't do it. [/quote]
