[QUOTE="Star*, post: 314599, member: 4964"] Hi there - I would RUN screaming to the nearest book store or order through this site the book called HOW TO TALK SO YOUR CHILDREN WILL LISTEN AND HOW TO LISTEN SO YOUR CHILDREN WILL TALK. Do it now, while she's 3 and you are going to save yourself a BUNCH of heartache. There are week by week lessons that will take you through daily practices of exactly how to avoid exhausting yourself with "what should I do." However - to humore you; When my son (now 19) was 5 - we were in Kmart and he had been with Daddy dearest. May I have, had been replaced with Brat syndrome and he was now at full bore throwing and tossing toys he could not have because I couldn't afford them. (Daddy dearest KNEW this). When I gave the redirection to get the toy he threw 1/2 an aisle length and place it back in the correct spot? He said NO and you can't make me. So...I did what any Mother would do - and THREW myself on the floor and began flailing my arms and legs, kicking and screaming that I was a horrible Mother, that I couldn't afford a toy, and I kept this up until other Moms came to watch and until Dude went and got the toy and replaced it as I asked then came to me and through his 5 year old gritted teeth said "Stop it you're 'barrasing me." I got an applause from one Mother and another one said she wished she had done the same thing years ago. To this day - even at 19 - I merely have to mention that I can, and will throw a bigger and more obscene temper tantrum ANYWHERE, and ANYTIME - and it has completely stopped further ones in public of the WILL YOU BUY ME THIS nature with Dude, with me. Other tantrums? Well it's still a work in progress - but then he's got to turn 40 someday:anxious: Hugs & Welcome Star [/QUOTE]
