[QUOTE="AllStressedOut, post: 66179, member: 3837"] I'm slowly learning that requests are not allowed. If I say, difficult child 1 take out the trash please instead of "difficult child I Would you take out the trask or Can you take out the trash?" That doesn't get the same reaction. I used difficult child I as an example, but really difficult child 3 is the only one at this point who says no to me. I'm waiting for the bomb to drop with the older 2, but so far so good. The oldest difficult child does say no to teachers, but complies with my requests. Humor works great with my oldest two as well. Now I just need a no fail approach with difficult child 3. [/QUOTE]
