[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say, “This is when you look at me and say thank you,” and then wait until she does it. You reply, “You’re welcome” or “My pleasure” or whatever. Also it is time to start her with more responsibilities around the house. It’s hard to appreciate things you’ve never done yourself. [/quote] This is just not the way to handle it at all. [/quote] Worked for my kid. He’s 19 now and very polite and helpful. I teach my kindergarteners to say please and thank you and look at others in the eyes when they speak. Basic manners aren’t being taught in most homes anymore. It only takes a second or two. [/quote] You can teach manners without that belittling tone.[/quote] It’s not belittling. You are telling them what to say in the situation until they start saying it on their own. [/quote] Try being on the other end [/quote]
