[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 469133, member: 84"] I learned the hard way not to punish outside of school for stuff that went on in school. One thing I can tell you about consequences.......... It doesn't always "appear" to be working. That doesn't mean it's not working, nor does it mean you should stop. Travis would do the same things over and over and over and over and over again to the point where it nearly drove me nuts. The consequences never changed, rules were rules. For a very long time I wondered if he'd ever get it. I mean I can't tell you how many times he'd finish a punishment for something and go right back and do it again. Let's put it this way, at 2 the boy spent more time on the time out chair than off the time out chair because I'd no more than let him off and he'd do it again or something else. Well, he did eventually. It just took him MUCH longer than the easy child child, MUCH more repetition of cause and effect for it to click with him. But it did click. If I'd given up along the way out of frustration........it would probably never have clicked. [/QUOTE]
