[QUOTE="Mandy, post: 224340, member: 6245"] Last night went much better thank goodness!! Unfortunatly if I take his TV out then that is the only privelege we do have to take away that he cares about. We have stripped his room of every single toy before and he could have cared less. We got a V-tech Vsmile from my mother so they can start some learning games and they did well with it last night. We did set a timer so both of them had a turn and difficult child did better than easy child with that. lol This was the hold I was trying to use:happy: I just evidently wasnt very good at it, or he was way to slick on getting out of it!! I also gave difficult child 1.5mg of the melatonin before we go went our nightly routine for bed and he fell alseep in about 45min instead of hours!! I do know that i screwed up and it went more into a power struggle with difficult child, but I am new at this whole new way of thinking and I know I am bound to make a few mistakes.This is completly different than how I parent(ed) easy child. We had always punishment & rewards with easy child and difficult child could care less most of the time about either. Thank you so much for all your suggestions and I am so glad to have other parents that understand!!!:happy: This site has been a blessing for my sanity. lol [/QUOTE]
