[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell her to re-say things nicely if she's asking for something and make her do it over and over till she's nice and polite. Give her a time out. Send her to her room for an hour and take out the fun stuff.[/quote] +1 I typically tell them they have one chance to restate it in a nice tone, then I say no/ignore. I have been known to require ‘practice’ for exceptionally rude tones and a slammed door always gets 10 practice closures to make sure they know how to close it. You also have to be willing and able to walk away and not engage. And as others say - you need the consequences to sting. My kids have gone days without screens. [/quote]
