[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 411444, member: 1233"] Go ahead and let him whine all he wants - just be SURE not to reward that whining by staying home!! If you stay home after all his whining and moaning it will teach him that you will bow to his wishes if he whines enough! You could do what my mother did - if we were whining she needed the garbage taken out, the dog walked, the floor swept and something dusted. Never said word one about the whining, it was just "Time to take out the garbage" or "THis needs to be dusted now" etc.... Eventually we figured out that the more we complained the more chores she made us do. Took gfgbro years longer than me, but I didn't mind - it meant he had to do them! If we skated by with-o drawing her attention we didn't get near so many chores, lol. I hope you have a wonderful evening. Why not set your mood up right by putting a video or game on for difficult child and taking a bubble bath? [/QUOTE]
