[QUOTE="PersonalEnigma, post: 119583, member: 4457"] I had difficult child do that type of thing once at a video game store. He didn't want to leave the game he was playing so he yelled that I was trying to kidnap him! I removed him immidiately (he was about 6 at the time), took him around the back of the store and gave him one of the few spankings he's had in his life (I was so upset at him :( ). I know it may not have been the best response, but I was afraid of the possible reprecussions of his behaviour and wanted it made clear to him that it was 100% unacceptable. He has pulled other things since then in public, but never again has accused me of kidnapping him... I did of course have a long talk to him later about the situation and explained the possible reprecussions. Thank goodness he doesn't do the run away thing any more. He was terrible for it when he was little. [/QUOTE]
