[quote=Anonymous]My child had horrible behaviors through 1st grade. They increasingly got less explosive when he got older but he would sometimes say terrible things to us. Taking things away would have no effect. I read an article that really helped with a behavior management technique. I can't find the original but will keep looking and post if I do. Basically you calmly go close but not too close and repeat the same command over and over to them to redirect, 15-18 seconds apart. Never yelling or raising your voice. A direct request with as few words as possible. It sometimes took a long time and took a lot of patience but always worked. Like if he was saying stupid mommy at the pool I'd go close and say "sit quietly on the bench now" over and over again. You can't stop until he does. [/quote]
