[QUOTE="Crazy-Steph, post: 44814, member: 3729"] I guess for the same reason that my difficult child ate his hot dog out of the trash rather than just admit that he didn't finish his dinner. As far as the mess, is there any way you can back down but still let her know that her behavior is inappropriate? It sounds like you jumped to the next threat out of frustration (trust me, difficult child has been sent to bed at 7:00 before -- and he is 11). But I think she may be feeling overwhelmed by everything -- the parade, company, being moody already today... Personally, I would stick with the original punishment of throwing things out. After all, the parade sounds like fun. How often do we get to have fun with our difficult child's? Good luck no matter what you decide. We are here if you need us. [/QUOTE]
