[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What works better for you, OP?[/quote] Not OP but taking away certain toys or not getting a treat after dinner (a mini M&M) has worked for my kids. They also don’t have access to “electronics” so there’s that.[/quote] Lol. I am imagining the age where this would be effective. A child young enough to think of an m&m was a treat would be 3 or 4. At that age taking it away hours later would not be an effective punishment. “Your sister gets her m&m tonight, but you don’t get one because you pushed Larla on the playground this morning. Do you understand?” Or an older child. “You took the car without permission yesterday and we had no idea where you were. No mini m&m after dinner.” Or maybe in between. “Your teacher told me that you called another child a name at recess today. No mini m&m for you tonight!” [/quote]
