[QUOTE="dreamer, post: 153057, member: 1697"] this is of course, only my opinion, and I am lucky in that my difficult child um.....did not have a lot of outbursty type stuff....BUT anyway, for ANYONE.it seems to me that TEACHING more desireable behaviors is far better than punishing undesireable behaviors......why wait for something "bad" to occur..why not first try to prevent something bad? and why use plain punishment only after when you can use teaching after? why restrain and confine and restrict someone who can learn better choices, see better role modeling....DO something POSITIVE? Besides, fresh air is HEALTHY and .......a healthy body helps create a healthy mind........I prefer to save confinement-restriction-detention etc for serious hard core very dangerous events.......what is difficult child gonna LEARN this way? What is this gonna teach him? How is it gonna teach him? This PO sounds like she is power hungry, authoritive, on a power trip- look she has the power to do this so she is going too, look at her and all her puffed up ego......like she is thriving on the power in and of itself and not the ramifications of what she is doing or is supposed to be accomplishing. she sounds like a major difficult child in her own right. darn it. I am so sorry. I know we need to take action with our difficult children...but...I just am not at all sure she is going to get positive results with her methods. [/QUOTE]
