[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the parents. I think we all bend our styles around the children we're looking after, but for a family in an interview it's important for them to first get a sense of what that style is. In the first question, you gave no concrete examples of what you would actually DO. My advice would be that if you find a question has a lot of different answers depending on the specific scenario, then choose a scenario and response for yourself. So my response to that first question would be something like: My technique may vary quite a bit based on the scenario, but if for example there was a safety concern (like holding hands while crossing the street) all other activity would stop until the child was listening. We would not begin to cross the street until the child had agreed to hold hands. If necessary we would go back in the car or find a safe space along the sidewalk to step back and give the child a chance to calm down and begin to listen. [/quote]
