[QUOTE="Suz, post: 40104, member: 29"] We ended up using natural consequences as much as possible...and sometimes "with a twist." For example, most natural consequences make sense- lousy schoolwork=lousy grades (I had a FIT if they took away Rob's recesses and insisted that they NOT- he needed that time to burn off steam and they all paid for it even worse if his recesses were removed). The "twist" came when he got older. If Rob wanted to go to a dance, for example, we would tie in his home behavior with his ability to go to the dance. It was so *interesting* how he could be nice and respectful the week leading up to a dance when it was next to impossible any other time. Still, it was worth it to us to have that peaceful week even if it was baloney [img]:wink:[/img] as far as a longterm solution. You do what you must when the chips are down.
