[quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, I don't think that kind of overreaction/ punishment is going to work at this age. You need consistent natural consequences. For the plate, I would just say that the consequence is he cleans it up and doesn't eat his food. He is acting out for some reason. The reason is not because he has 9 bags of toys. Taking those away teaches him that when you are angry you punish other people. I'm not sure that this lesson is going to help him in his current state of mind. You need to look at his overall diet, sleep, routine... what needs he might have that are not getting met (including needs for intellectual and social stimulation).[/quote]
