During one testy moment, daughter decided to test out the power play between her and mom. She voluntarily dumped all her toys into the basement and refused to play or have anything to do with them for the next six months. <br /><br />How about alternating between rewards and taking away his fav toy from him? Or, do what my mom actually did -- threw them in the garbage? :-DNomadicExpathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05530123337350392876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958650458175024216.post-33891852463249807092009-07-17T16:50:29.062+10:002009-07-17T16:50:29.062+10:00I am facing the same problem that you are facing n...I am facing the same problem that you are facing now...and you should feel lucky that this tactic can be used on Aaron for sooooo longgggg....I have used it the same tactic on my daughter too...but it was only last for maybe...5 days? then she 'agreed' to keep away the toys...kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08039139605754787557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958650458175024216.post-174991132710356892009-07-15T23:05:07.638+10:002009-07-15T23:05:07.638+10:00My parents believed in spanking, which they admini...My parents believed in spanking, which they administered liberally. I didn't turn out to be a serial killer or anything, so I guess I suffered no permanent effects. As far as changing tactics goes, give up now. Children can change faster than we can. Children are like The Borg from Star Trek - they adapt to whatever weapons you use after just one or two shots. Resistance is futile.Bilbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14213505386288233192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958650458175024216.post-54743771452047518752009-07-15T09:21:50.399+10:002009-07-15T09:21:50.399+10:00Maybe he needs more storage space!Maybe he needs more storage space!Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00017192454403363349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958650458175024216.post-29365535350146927672009-07-15T07:49:49.273+10:002009-07-15T07:49:49.273+10:00Can you take a picture of the top of your fridge p...Can you take a picture of the top of your fridge please? I would love to see this. <br /><br />I got spankings and my mouth washed out with soap, but I vow not to use that punishment method. I got so angry after spankings that it wasn't good. <br /><br />It's really tough to figure out what works and a process parents have to determine for themselves. Good luck.eganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03783658744477659987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958650458175024216.post-43438534237601579072009-07-15T07:14:04.311+10:002009-07-15T07:14:04.311+10:00I get a fail on this.

I always remembered watching my dear brother "running for his life" as my mum ran after him around the bed with a cane in her hand ..... and I stood there smiling and being rather pleased with myself :) Why? Because he bullied me and my mum was punishing him for it. Hah ... childhood memories and canes .... :)Brian Onoreply@blogger.com
