[QUOTE="Nancy423, post: 224814, member: 6118"] Just wondering if this might be an idea for you - instead of keeping the present away, give him a small item (dollar store one?) to open. Keep a stash of small items so when he gets into this "mode" you have something to occupy him for a little bit. One thing I hate to do is keep difficult child from doing something she's looking foward to. One day I grounded her and she wasn't allowed to go to her cousin's birthday party. To this day I feel so guilty for doing that. It was more of a family get together. Just don't want you to feel that way later if you choose not to go to the concert. Hope the rest of the holidays are happy for you both! [/QUOTE]
