[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 437633, member: 3419"] Aw, I'm so sorry. I'm glad you cleared it up, and I'm glad he is verbal enough to have explained it to you. In regard to withholding the water ... omg, come ON! When husband and I were in Japan 25 yrs ago, we were sitting at an outdoor cafe, and witnessed a mom correcting her child's Japanese. We had no idea what she was saying, but we heard the preschooler say something and reach for her food. The mother pulled back the food, repeated a similar phrase, made the child repeat it (I'm assuming it was grammatically correct) and then allowed the child to take the item. We just started to laugh. Great parenting! That's how kids learn. No scene. Just example and reward. I wouldn't expect a 2-yr-old to complete a long, grammatically correct sentence, but please and thank you are fine. [/QUOTE]
