[QUOTE="Star*, post: 163117, member: 4964"] I had to laugh at your post - because it brought back a day I had with Dude. He had been really acting out, and misbehaving. I mean to the point of total chaos and insanity. We were down to giving him his clothes, nothing in his room but a bed, sheet and pillow, no door - and just him and a book. He had about 15 more minutes to go on his 'go to your room' deal and I was here, on "the board". I affectionately call it "THE BOARD" and everyone in my house knows when Mom is on "The board" just leave her alone - she's trying to cool down, or find sanity. It's the equivalent of the search for the holy grail in our home. So Dude was in his room, and I logged on, had read a post or two, was getting ready to comment and here comes Mr. I needa, I wanta, CANIhava, and whining like God gave him this great task ALL unto him alone. And I did the "ignore" and detach thing. Dude turned up the heat. I pointed to the room and pointed, and pointed, and reluctantly he went back. Five minutes later he's baaaaaack and whinier than EVER and now he's rolling around with his sheet on the ground in the dining room looking at me in the living room saying "I needa, I wanta, CanIhava? I pointed again - and added 10 minutes. Finally he came out of his room, wrapped in his sheet like the curse of the mummy - dragging a foot and all for dramatic effect and before he got "I needa" out of his mouth? I leaned over in my chair and I literally growled and yelled at the same time "I AM ON THE BOARD LEAVE ME ALONE." and if you could get a visual on it - when the words came out - had it been a cartoon you would have seen Dudes hair blown back clean to the sides of his head as if a mighty wind exited my body like dragons breath sans the flames." Dude got up, forgot his dead leg limp, jerked his sheet around his little hiney and walked down the hall to his room saying "I HATE THE BOARD." To this day I only have to say to anyone - I"m on the board - and I'm immediately left alone unless it's fire, food, or flatulence (from the dog). Maybe you aren't yelling/growling and demanding your time hard enough? lol [/QUOTE]
