[QUOTE="Confused, post: 429710"] Hi SRL, I was planning on getting that book this month and reading everything here on this board. As far as handling my son, I was raising him the same way as my daughter, then I adjusted it a little when his tantrums started more frequentlly and violently, trying different approaches, time out,take away his toys, no outside- (his favorite thing is to go outside too),no tv, no computer,no going out unless Dr's etc. It didn't work so I kept trying other things.
