[QUOTE="Fran, post: 147645, member: 3"] I'm on the same page with meowbunny. My experience was that difficult child could hold it together to get the carrot I dangled. It took huge effort on his part to focus on it. He always went back to the comfortable behavior. I think of it as being on a strict diet. I can keep it together to reach a goal but I consistently relax after the goal is met and start to resume negative eating habits. My son was no different except his behavior was unacceptable and produced someone who wasn't functioning as he should. Keep working with the carrot and stick while increasing the length of time between rewards. I can't say it works for everyone but it gives her a chance to relearn appropriate behavior. [/QUOTE]
