[QUOTE="Pookybear66, post: 206034, member: 5957"] Sharon-thanks for the answers LOL and the support. I too hope today will be fine. My guess is it will because its Friday and the teacher doesn't give homework over the wkend unless its a project sort of thing. small-Thanks also for the support. I know that in the grand scheme of things it wasn't a big deal. But at the time it was. I guess I have some difficult child tendencies myself. I am reading "THE Book". I am almost done with it. I know I shouldn't have put food in the A basket but I was being stubborn. I was working on principal. There really was no "good" reason he needed chicken nuggets. He DID eventually eat the family chicken and do his homework. It's actually kind of funny because this morning he wanted to take pudding for his school snack. I really didn't want him to. He said-"wait a minute this is kinda like the chicken nugget thing last night". I laughed and said "yea and how did that work out for you?". He said "you didn't let me have them. But this is different. It's okay to bring a pudding. We can have a non-healthy snack once in a while." He was being calm and nicely presenting his point. I offered him some other choices. He said no and since he was still being calm and there was only 10 min before bus time-I let him have the pudding. All I want him to do is stop yelling at me. I didn't sign up to be abused by my kid. It's really uncalled for and very tiring but we're working on it. Both of us! [/QUOTE]
