[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 3 1/2 year old son has the tendency to dash when redirected or spoken to harshly. Last Thursday I called our nanny to let her know I was a few minutes behind schedule only to find her sounding upset that he had dashed from her while in the playroom located in our basement and he proceeded to lock her in it. We keep a set of keys down there (he's done this to me before) that will unlock the outside door and there is also a key to the front door on the same chain. Dh was home not feeling well so didn't hear her beating on the door. She used the keys to get out and still wasn't able to get inside because when dh came home early he also locked the bolt on the front door. My ds finally came back to let her out of the basement, she says after around 30/40 minutes. Afterwards he continued to misbehave until I came home.

Over the weekend ds received a motorized bike that we keep in the basement for charging and because that's the only area with enough space for him to drive it. He absolutely loved it. I did not just up and decide to give him this it had been preordered before the basement incident. I spoke with dh over lunch and asked if he remembered to tell her about not letting it charge too long and he proceeded to tell me that she said there was no need because she told ds last week that she would not allow him basement playtime for a week so he learns a lesson and until then he is only allowed toys on main floor.

I've not seen her yet because dh sees her in the morning but I'm feeling this is a bit harsh. He is only 3. I don't want to not have her back but can't help but feel he may not even understand this punishment. I feel I should say something this evening.[/quote]
I'm sorry, OP, but you are clearly the one who doesn't understand the absolute necessity of consequences in this situation. I'm horrified that your child is behaving this way at only three. You have a monster child in the making. Or maybe a very special needs behavior problem child. You desperately need some serious parenting help. Please get yourself a good therapist to help work out your issues. Your child's future depends on it. [/quote]
