[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is when you eat canned beans on toast for supper, and stale cereal without milk. When they cross the line, you pack up and leave immediately. no "just one more chance," no negotiation. Every time, this is the immediate result. They will stop very quickly.[/quote] This is bad advice. This works if you are somewhere that the kid thinks as fun. I'm not letting my kid derail grocery shopping. I imagine he would love it if all he had to do was act up a bit and get us to terminate every boring errand immediately.[/quote] +1 million. I’ve always found this advice ridiculous. It’s impractical, and 9 times out of 10, my kid was acting up BECAUSE he wanted to leave. So that would literally be rewarding his bad behavior & punishing myself all at once. [/quote]
