[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You would immediately fire a nanny who behaved like this. That should tell you all you need to know about using MiL as a caregiver in the future. [/quote]

The solution is for OP to spend more time caring for her own child instead of relying on her MIL. [/quote]

Or hire competent caregivers. MIL clearly isn’t up to it.[/quote]

Or OP. The kid has behavioral issues. [/quote]

Even OP is scared of her kid. Puts the shoes near him but not on him. Wonder why.[/quote]

Because OP is smart enough to know her kid will put them on himself when he sees mom is really leaving.  This is the kind of approach often recommended to parents to avoid daily battles with children to get ready.[/quote]

Hilarious. You have never met a strong willed kid. [/quote]

+1. I tried this with my DS at the same age and he just watched me pull out of the driveway from a window. [/quote]

I can see it. Also that kid won't "learn the lesson" and put his shoes on next time either. These kids are dead set on getting their way and won't back down for anything.[/quote]

Sigh. 
No they’re not.

Natural consequences work for 80% of the kids.

For adhd or asd kids you will need a bigger approach, doctors, meds and therapists. But for basic stuff like Be Ready To Leave the House, even neuroatypicals can accomplish that.

Kids pushing boundaries do so because they know a weak link pushover when they see it. [/quote]

Shocking stuff that we're talking about the 20%, the actual stubborn kids. We don't know which camp OPs kid falls in but it sounds awfully familiar. [/quote]
