[quote=Anonymous]Learn about validation and implement it. Learn to set boundaries--what you won't tolerate. Doesn't matter whether others (including DH) see it as no big deal. Decide on what these things are and decide on what the consequences are. The consequences have to be something you can and will do. (Cannot stress how important this is--idle threats do not work.) Communicate to your DS in a calm time what behaviors you won't tolerate and what the consequence is should he indulge in them. Do not make consequences up on the spot--this is in a way unfair because you are making up the rules as you go along and he has no chance of evaluating in advance whether the behavior is worth the consequence to him. When you announce the consequence it should be in a calm neutral tone--think of a ref at children's soccer games.[/quote]
