[QUOTE="buddy, post: 587743, member: 12886"] I often will remind my son in a casual way...Q, eggs can get rotten so they need to go in the fridge by X. If you forget, I'll have to do it then if he does, I still look but he won't know. If he doesn't, I just do it and drop it. It's hard when they are reinforced by negative reactions. My son increases behaviors from any reaction, even my angry ones. When you change your style you can expect an increase in behaviors before a change. This is the time to be ultra careful and consistent. A once-in-a-while reaction will maintain a behavior really well! So just be aware, it's typical for him to up the issues when things change. This phase usually passes. But it can be hard and take quite a while. I think it's is fine that you put the eggs away, common sense. They will smell up the house. It would be best if dad did it. Good for you to realize what you can and can't control. I feel terrible for this kid. Without dads support he doesn't have a chance. [/QUOTE]
