[quote=Anonymous]I calmly state: "I don't respond to people who are rude to me. Would you like to try again?" And then once the child reframes what s/he wants more politely (I help script for them early on), then we deal with the issue at hand. A disrespectful tone never gets them what they want. Consistency across caregivers helps a lot. It may take a little while, but they catch on. My 5yo is testing intentional rudeness right now, after I offer an opportunity to reframe. That gets him a consequence.[/quote]
