[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] They have to come with a delicious TREAT and pop it into his mouth, metaphorically, as soon as he shows up. At 12, he's likely hangry :-) Than everyone needs to reinforce that you're all very sympathetic to his suffering, but he can't take out his frustration on others, especially those who love him and give him PRESENTS. Hint, hint. My 11 year old DD can be supremely grumpy when she's forced to do something she doesn't want to do. I do a mix of lecturing about manners and small rewards/compliments for good behavior. It keeps the worst behavior at bay...[/quote] Yes - wondering if they can bring some kind of awesome snack he wouldn't otherwise get (a candy bar? stopping for ice cream?) Something to help his blood sugar and sweeten the deal.[/quote]
