[quote=Anonymous]I know this is an old thread, but just want to say that I've had great success if instead of where the adult normally says "yes" or "no," I say "yes-please" and "no-thank you." Because they model what you say. Example of typical way: Parent: "Larla, do you want a piece of toast? Yes or no?" Larla: "Yes." Parent: "Yes, what?…What do you say?.." etc versus: "Larla, do you want a piece of toast? Yes-please or no-thank you?" Larla: "Yes-please."[/quote]
