[quote=Anonymous]What are you saying in return? If you're not replying at all or replying with the right words, then she'll keep saying it. Be sure you tell her that you hear what she's saying and then explain: --Bananas are so yummy. I can see why you want one. We don't have bananas in the car. What about a --something you have in the car--? --We have bananas at home. When we get there, would you like peanut butter on it or plain? For the daddy/mommy issue: --I KNOW you want mommy. Don't we love her so much!? Let's go home and see mommy and get some cuddles! You have to let them know you hear them and/or redirect them to something else or they get on a track and can't get off. If it's something she can't have: --I know you want to eat the elephant, but the elephant would be so sad! So we can't do that. --I know you want to play with your friend today. They are so much fun. Today, we're going to do X instead. [/quote]
