[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 225005, member: 3444"] Oh, Terry I missed this! Sounds like your day yesterday was like mine this morning! A negotiation only happens when both parties are willing. What your difficult child was doing was ARGUING. I think I'd prefer a list of "I WILL NOT ARGUE WITH MOM OR DAD" instead! And the second he opens his mouth to object to a rule you have stated, simply state to him, "You are arguing with me." And if you have a predefined consequence for arguing, he should know automatically that when you say "You are arguing", a consequence is not far behind just waiting for him. Do you think the clonidine is high enough for him? I'm assuming he takes that for aggression? [/QUOTE]
