[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP your goal is to have him learn how to self-regulate correct? Because you wont be able to make him stand in a corner with his nose against the wall forever and it certainly isnt a long-term strategy for him. I mean, when he gets mad at 8 years old in the middle of art class, work or at his girlfriend do you want him saying excuse me I need a minute and then go find a corner to put his nose in? NO you dont. You want him to remove himself from the situation and/or be able to be downgrade/shift his emotional state.

Boys are a bit harder because they are actually physiologically more response to high emotions meaning their bodies response is at a higher level (i.e. blood pressure, heart rate, some neurotransmitters, etc).

Id really suggest conscious discipline as a resource on IG. [url]https://www.instagram.com/p/CJRfkHkl79Y/[/url]

Your expectation is developmentally inappropriate. Please watch the link video specifically for your kids but the entire account is really helpful. [/quote]

lol things like “conscious discipline” do NOT work unless the kid is naturally compliant. If they are naturally compliant, anything will work. Whenever I read those stupid parenting books and blogs, the description of the kids’ behavior is so incredibly mild that I laugh. Get back to me when your kid is repeatedly hitting you and other kids. you can’t emote your way out of that. you have to set firm boundaries, and past the toddler stage, you do that with a combination of positive and negative reinforcement.
