[quote=Anonymous]Baby steps, suggested by How To Talk So Little Kids Will Listen: Start by changing what you say. Yelling "Shoes!!" after your kid fails to put on his shoes a million times is so much better than "I SAID put on your *#?$ shoes!!! Can't you ever listen to the simplest request?!?" Changing what you say also starts to shift you away from taking out your frustration on your kids. Sometimes just saying "I am so frustrated!!" is a reasonable release. (**Do not** continue with "Why don't you ever yadda yadda...")[/quote]
