[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 212079, member: 3184"] My difficult child does this a lot, and my response to I don't want to is usually, I didn't ask if you wanted to, can you go do xyz? With my difficult child if I yell, everything gets worse. If he wants to do it later, we set a timer for a certain amount of minutes and when the timer goes off, he has to go do what ever it is. The timer gives him a chance to do it later, and reminds me when later happens. Otherwise later never happens, and then I get upset. I really try to stay non reactive, which is hard, but helps. I get frustrated with my difficult child who is almost 11, it would be worse with a 13yr old. Hugs, and try not to let him set you off. [/QUOTE]
