I was a smug parent like you with my first. My second made me eat humble pie. Same parenting method, different results. I get tons of compliments on how well behaved my first is. The second one I get compliments on how creative he is. Of course we don't hand him sharpies or leave them where he can reach them. He looks for objects until he finds them. He learned to drag a little chair around the house to reach objects when he was 15 months. For Christmas he got a Playmobile forest animal playset. He soon learned that the little raven will make marks on the wall if you slide his beak up and down the wall. He was pretending the raven was swooping down on the other animals when this  happened. Intrigued he marked up the wall. Of course he gets consequences, but he will test, test, test them over and over again. [/quote]

your second and my only would get along.  She's in first grade and tests EVERYONE - my school meetings with her teacher always end in tears.  Always.  It has been an incredibly long and hard 7 years.[/quote]
