[QUOTE="howlongto18, post: 305851, member: 3129"] Here's what we are doing now. 123 magic with time outs for behavior that is not civil. 3 or more time outs means no friends after school. After lying progressively got worse we decided to ground him for one day when he lies. This is in the room with bathroom and meal breaks. I am homeschooling him. When he gets defiant about his work, it's straight to a 3. Violence and yelling can be straight to a three (which is 5 minutes timeout). Not going to timeout without a fight double the time out. His chores are rewarded with a sticker chart which earns small toys (which he promptly destroys to "build something" but whatever). We also is currently doing some work to pay off a window he broke because he disobeyed our rules. Over and over we told him not to throw rocks around the vehicles, but he kept doing it and finally broke the truck window. He's pulling weeds for that. I don't want the punishments to grow to the point that he feels buried and discouraged by them because that's counter effective. However, I think he is very good at manipulating/bargaining/negotiating and I don't want him to get any ideas that he gets a special set of rules. My number one goal is to produce a functioning adult. [/QUOTE]
