[QUOTE="april1974, post: 435077, member: 12128"] Ktllc- I get what you mean, they say don't sweat the small stuff, but that is hard when it's continuous small stuff that add up over time. I was just giving the fountain eg as a teaching moment, not so much the safety aspect of it but instead of discipline I chose to educate, it could have been something that was unsafety related. I'm trying to not punish anymore, I don't want to see him continuely in time outs but we also have to have consequences. Keista-I kwym, educating and discussing doesn't work as well with E, he's much harder to reason with however since he is generally a "good" child and doesn't stir the pot I don't have to do this with him, but I can totally see why that method may not work with some kids, I think it will work with my M, hopefully! Sometimes my failure to find a method could actually, sometimes doing nothing is better than doing the wrong thing? I don't know, so much to learn and how to manage everything, it's def a balancing act. I wanted to add your son reminds me a bit of my twin a E, he can cry for hours it's horrible, he gets into a mode and that's it, takes forever for him to come out of it. Thank goodness he isn't the one being violent and having issues, generally he is my easy child but there is no such thing as a easy child however he is a tonne easier to manage. [/QUOTE]
