[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 470481, member: 1514"] CinVa is what Im talking about. I was not speaking about the temper tantrum because I think that was probably a reaction to the game falling and then being told to pick it up. He just sort of melted then. Fairly normal to me. I would have been exasperated if I had been pulling a bag of rice out of the pantry after a long day at work and it fell, spilled all over the floor and realized...darn, now I have to clean it up! Now I am 49 and know I have to but he is 4 and just starting to learn these things. So he vocalizes it. I still think when we ask small kids to clean up, its with expectation they are not going to do it with the same ability as an adult and they will most likely need our help. If that means we have to work with them to get it done, so be it. [/QUOTE]
