[QUOTE="SRL, post: 33284, member: 701"] I would encourage you to first revisit The Explosive Child. Do a reread and see what else you can pull out of it. There's also a threat at the top of the Early Childhood board for adapting it to younger children that may be of help to you. In your above example where you immediately cite a consequence you are playing right into the hands of a child with an ODD mindset. They LOVE to test limits and put forth their being in charge. Nothing sets up their knee jerk reaction to authority than being told what to do and being given a consequence. You want to look beyond giving choices to find ways to defuse the situations without getting into this tug of war. [/QUOTE]
