[quote=Anonymous]One of my families does counting to 3. The child knows he will get in trouble if he hasn't done what was asked (or stopped doing whatever) by the time we get to that number. If he is just pushing things, we start with 1. If he is obviously not focusing on trying to do the requested task, then we do 2. Then he will usually take another moment, then go and do it since he knows 3 is coming. But he has oppositional defiance disorder and so this is better than just having him get in trouble after being asked a few times. He gets that chance to push back but only so far before punishment does come - usually then just sent to his bedroom until he feels he can come out and do it/apologize etc.[/quote]
