[QUOTE="AllStressedOut, post: 55606, member: 3837"] I used "The Explosive Child" as firewood and it worked great! hehehe, just teasing. Have you read "Muzzled" by Michael A. Smerconish? It talks about how kids are rewarded for just showing up and how this isn't good. I would be willing to bet that I'm the only person who has checked out "The Explosive Child" and "Muzzled" from the library. Two totally different concepts. I see points in both books, so those who love the 1st book, please don't chastise (sp?) me. I just don't completely grasp everything in "The Explosive Child." Comes from my old fashioned raising. I wish I had some good advice, but I don't. I feel for ya and I can't stand when any therapist tells me how to parent. Most of them don't even have kids of their own and those that do don't spend any time with them because they're too busy making $ off of our kids. Next time just do what I do when my mother is going on and on...nod and smile, just nod and smile. (I've learned this technique does not work over the phone) [/QUOTE]
