[QUOTE="Allan-Matlem, post: 542292, member: 10"] Hi, In the moment - breakfast , is a difficult time to deal with problems I would try to start the cps process and then set a time later to discuss the problem so after hearing his complaint - I would use reflective listening and just repeat what he has said - I hear you are not so happy with .....and would prefer ...... right now I would appreciate if you can try and make the best of what I have made for you , later I will make some time for us to come up with a plan so you can enjoy your breakfast s , is that OK by you ? complaining about his attitude and sending him to his room just set up the ' blame game'. Even if a kid is showing attitude or trying to be manipulative it pays to take what he says seriously and see his perspective. This builds trust and gives us entry to get a clearer picture of his concerns and solve the problem when our buttons are being pushed it is not easy to respond in this way , but looking back on what happened we do have the benefit of hindsight.
