[quote=Anonymous]Your kid is a FREAK! By four, DC should have moved on from scissors and on to permanent markers. Questions: has this happened before? was it done through boredom or did you get a sense it was more deliberately destructive? If the answers are "yes" and "yes" then there should be consequences. If not I think a good chat about respecting things, the cost of damage, and removal of said implements to a top shelf is in order. It goes without saying that my kids are absolutely perfect (and extremely intelligent and advanced). But I do think that at 4 there's still the odd random act of destruction in the offering. I'd say that what you describe is very normal. [/quote]
