[quote=Anonymous]I never EVER ask my kids to do something that they must do. "Would you please go put on your shoes?" would never come out of my mouth. That's a yes/no question and what happens when you've gotten a "no" response? I say "Go grab your shoes and put them on." If my child said "You grab them" whatever they were doing would stop immediately. If they were eating the food would be taken away, if they were playing with a toy or on a screen that would be taken away. They would get told "YOU are the child, and you may NOT speak to adults that way. If you do it again, you will be severely punished, understand? Now go put-on your shoes." And if they did it again, we'd go wherever we needed to go and then when they came home they'd get sent straight to their room where they could sit and stare at the walls - no playing - for an hour. If they did it AGAIN, the punishment would get more severe. [/quote]
