[QUOTE="OpenWindow, post: 185736, member: 45"] Yes, I am tired of being the bad guy. Rewards, consequences, behavior charts, only work for my difficult child at school. He sabotages himself at home. So we don't use them (although I'm thinking he might be mature enough to try something like that again). We give him immediate consequences and rewards that are directly related to his behavior. If he throws the controller to the X-box, he can't play with it. If he doesn't eat supper, he can't have a snack. If he gets in trouble playing outside, he can't go outside. If he hits or threatens someone, he has to leave the room. I think the Explosive Child is the best book to start out with. Not only did it give us a system we could work with, it helped me understand difficult child's way of thinking so much better. Linda [/QUOTE]
