[QUOTE="tired Cheryl, post: 79900, member: 4109"] Hi, Martie: Wow, it is like you have a hidden camera and are able to see into my home!! Yes, toothbrushing has always been an issue and although I just learned of Greene's methods, I intuitively took teeth brushing out of my Basket "A." Although, I am fanatical with easy child's hygiene (to the point that she brushes her teeth as soon as she get home from school-with no remeinder from me!) I knew that I had to deal with difficult child differently. Even when that nagging little voice was telling me that I was merely "giving in to him" I knew that there was more to it than that. Just like you, I figured that a few cavities would be the least of my problems if I kept up the toothbrusing battle. Same goes for clothes. He is very particular about the type of pants or shorts that he wears-only wants to wear ones with belt loops. So, except for the time when he was attending school and had to wear a uniform, I let him choose his clothes-even if they don't match etc. Like most of us parents, we were already implementing many of these strategies. In my case, since my mother in law is the one that heard about Greene's book and methods and told me about them, it will help them (mother in law, father in law, husband)understand many of the things that I have been trying to do for years. That in itself is going to be a tremendous help.. Thanks for your input! Cheryl [/QUOTE]
