[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 496962, member: 2322"] I agree, great way to handle it. Most of us probably can remember when our children were babies and overly tired or stimulated, they just needed to cry for a while . It is kind of the same. I would even go one step further. I wouldn't harp too much on how it makes you feel--again you could easily be guilt tripping the kid for behavior he can't control (think of the baby). I would maybe say, you know when you get tired, it is hard to not whine or whatever, so that's why I watch your schedule or whatever. Acknowledge the behavior and the fact that he can recognize it is is not desirable, but don't quilt trip him. It sounds like your calmness helped. [/QUOTE]
