[QUOTE="shaile, post: 106825, member: 4123"] Greetings..~smiles~ There is something to this with my difficult child, and it has happened enough times now to be of no doubt to me. Normal things you say to your kids like new information.."Okay you have that lamp now and it is hot..make sure you don't put anything on it or it might catch fire." Welp folks..thats exactly what he ended up doing. Reminder from time to time.."Make sure you behave at the bus stop okay". Welp folks the very next day of each time I have given that gentle reminder..he has done something at the bus stop or on the bus. Reminder from time to time.."Okay remember it just takes a small amount of shampoo for your hair okay". Welp folks that very bath/shower instance results in him completely emptying the shampoo bottle to get to the bottle to play with every time. Things like this I could list pages full. Seems the more I arm him with preventative information or reminders ..the more the exact incidents of such happen. If I say nothing..the less they happen but feel like I am being somewhat negligent in not giving this information "especially safety ones" to him. Has anyone else noticed a pattern or correlation like this? shaile [/QUOTE]
