[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 606912, member: 6546"] I agree that you cannot negotiate on everything and definitely not on the Non-negotiables! But - You can offer limited choices. Such as: we'll have a snack after you get in the stroller - would you like crackers or chips? After we change your diaper, would you like to play a game or read a story? Do you want to eat your meat first - or the rice? Do you want to wear the red shirt or the blue shirt? Let him choose where you can. Try not to let the non-negotiables be a battle by being matter-of-fact about it. And if it's not important and not worth a battle? Skip it! Good luck! [/QUOTE]
