[quote=Anonymous]Ok everybody let's get our professional brains together here. Normal behavior from a 4 month old is worlds apart from normal (or acceptable for lack of a better term). We're talking about 1) age appropriate behavior and 2) the various approaches parents and educated child care providers for each age and stage. NO in and of itself is not a bad word. It is clear cut and unambiguous. If your four whatever year old is reaching for a wall outlet, it is OK to say NO! You just have to adjust the tone of the NO based on the age and the behavior. Realize that your children learn first from you how to express themselves. NO can be a very empowering word when used in the correct context.[/quote]
