[quote=Anonymous]Enough with the never ending warnings. Tell him before gets in the car that he can’t have the sound on the phone. First violation, you pull over and put the phone in the trunk. When he whines you have the radio set on a classical station and you turn the dial way up to drown him out. Then turn it back down and say “Did I forget to mention there’s also a no whining rule in my car too?” Repeat as necessary. When you do this, the key is to be super upbeat and calm and smiling. You do not get flustered. If there are other kids in the car they will think it’s funny. Tell him he can try again during the next car ride. One more thing: buy a bag of microwave rice for the kid. I wouldn’t go out of my way to cook to his tastes, but having something he can eat is a nice gesture. [/quote]
