[quote=Anonymous]Nanny here with charges who get constant compliments with me but are awful for mom and dad. MB has tried to copy my "tricks," but it's not about any one technique; it is about the overall relationship with the child. I have high expectations, but I also provide a calm and structured framework. MB has low expectations (e.g., will spend 20 minutes reminding them not to bite at the park), and provides much less consistency. That framework is a big part of her discipline problems. I suggest a discipline course or two for you and your DH (not because I think you are doing anything badly, just because I think MOST first-time parents would have a much easier life if they knew more about child development and discipline texhniques generally).
