[QUOTE="heather34576, post: 757694, member: 24877"] No, you're right, in that incident he didn't seem particularly angry. I don't know that it works to get him what he wants, though. In that instance, after I took him aside and told him it was inappropriate to talk to his friends that way and he kept doing it, I exited the Zoom meeting and he didn't get to see his friends anymore. I gave him a warning that I would do that but he persisted. He was clearly upset after I turned it off. In the case of threats like "Get me juice or I'll smack you", I don't get him anything until he asks appropriately and only if it's something he's allowed to have. I just don't see how that behavior serves him. I do need to start writing this stuff down again. [/QUOTE]
