Of course she bawled her eyes out and said "sorry sorry I love you!" and luckily she stayed. I haven't heard that little I hate you phrase since. Now, if she had gone to her room and started packing (Clothes only of course, I told her the toys stayed with the loving family) I don't know what I would have done!<br /><br />Good luck with Lo, you have to find whatever discipline method works best for HER. If it's time out, taking privledges away, a swat on the butt, whatever. But it may also be slightly different from what you'll have to do with B (and YES B will go through this stuff too! she might even be a little sneakier at it after watching what Lo goes thru) I wouldn't ignore the problem though, then it'll just get worse.<br /><br />Good Luck!The Byers Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07507924724853256879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276823500490077796.post-49585645073938190752009-09-23T20:28:40.763-06:002009-09-23T20:28:40.763-06:00I haven't personally been in this territory wi...I haven't personally been in this territory with mine but have heard that Parenting with Love and Logic is a good book - I bought it but haven't read it yet - Better get started :) at least before preschool starts in a couple years.Ashley Bennionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821274681021673365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276823500490077796.post-49554928268434521372009-09-23T19:49:57.697-06:002009-09-23T19:49:57.697-06:00Kids are so embarrassing. I love the "crazy ...Kids are so embarrassing. I love the "crazy mom" eyes you were talking about. I get those, too and my kids freak out and say, "Mom! You're scaring me!" At least they don't come out TOO often, right? Someone told me at a baby shower for my first child not to worry about anything your kid does because it's just a phase. I have to remind myself of that...often...Jenniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02923738819652949783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276823500490077796.post-86170640209559001622009-09-23T18:27:47.909-06:002009-09-23T18:27:47.909-06:00My mother (yes, your sweet grandma) used pepper on...My mother (yes, your sweet grandma) used pepper on tongues that stuck out when they shouldn't or said bad words...Deannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13208649821037271592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8276823500490077796.post-34476407275094335472009-09-23T17:27:35.244-06:002009-09-23T17:27:35.244-06:00Cut it off!

I walked into Brooklyn's classroom yesterday and she was yelling at the boy next to her, "Helloooooo! You're on MY mat! Get off!" (a proud moment? no.)<br /><br />I just talk to her a LOT about it right now but I feel a lot the way you do.

Very good about discipline!! It just helps put it all into a different perspective. I'm nervous about the discipline stuff. Our lil' ham is already throwing some tantrums and it's so new, I don't know what to do! But that book is really good and will help!Corkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09233863116604288768noreply@blogger.com
