[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 596468, member: 11791"] No you didn't jinx yourself. difficult children just ARE that way. You need to reverse your approach. I don't know how your difficult child thinks. But... mine is Aspie-ish, and... punishments don't work at all. What does work? incentives. Not big stuff. Not "if you make it to school every day for the next three weeks..." stuff. Immediate gratification stuff. Daily... if she gets up and goes to school, she will get THAT DAY... and then the two of you negotiate what that (or a handful of options) reward is. [/QUOTE]
