[QUOTE="Tezzie, post: 66173, member: 2964"] With our difficult child 1, the request is made then I WALK AWAY!!! He is the greatest for getting into an argument about not doing something. If he has no way to argue AND has processing time, compliance is ~90%. by the way, we always phrase requests as "I would like you to please ..." rather than "Would you please .." since the second way allows the option of a "No" response and the first one doesn't. (Ideally) I'm also a big believer in natural consequences & humor. Tezzie [/QUOTE]
