[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so fed up with my 4yo DD not listening. Ever. It ranges from ignoring us when we tell her it’s time to get ready for bed or leave the house (with plenty of warning beforehand), to completely disregarding when we ask her to not do something (stop jumping on the couch, it’s not time for a snack, don’t throw a ball/toy in the house, not play with something that isn’t a toy). No joke, we’ve had her ears checked to make sure she doesn’t have an issue (all clear). What is the best way to get your child to listen, particularly when they are doing something you want them to stop doing? And what is the best consequence when they don’t listen? We regularly take away TV time and desserts because they seems to be cared about most, but it doesn’t seem to make an impact.[/quote] Look her straight in the face and tell her and then have her repeat. This way you know that she understands.[/quote]
