I'm glad to hear that other people find this effective, and I'm not crazy. Good luck with the hitting thing...I've got nothing for you there!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12725028461279566370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6660842927900057242.post-11273848273643900612012-10-19T09:47:56.307-07:002012-10-19T09:47:56.307-07:00Yeah, figuring out a useful punishment scheme is c...Yeah, figuring out a useful punishment scheme is challenging, especially given the age-appropriate nature of responses to, well, everything. My sister-in-law sends her almost 3-year-old to an empty room, by herself, to scream it out when she's about to melt down. Inevitably my niece comes back calmer and my sister-in-law isn't stressed out. Right now we're working on "Don't hit mommy!" with our 1-year-old. Haven't figured that one out yet. And yes, severed baby heads are creepy - thanks for sharing. ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07305594559414732984noreply@blogger.com
