Alright well when u make a rule for ur kids u first need to answer these questions. and the answers to them need to be Yes.
1. Do I care?(You dont want to put a rule just to add it)
2. Can the child do it?
3. Is the environment condusive? (for example: If u want them to do homework, no one should be watching tv)
4. Is the rule positively stated? (do not say, if u do ur homework i will let u play with ur friends. You need to say to the child: WHEN u finish ur homework u will be able to play with ur friends)
5. Can I enforce this rule without the use of punishment?(If u do have a ADD or a ADHD child punishment does not help. Once u punish them they forget why they were punished or they forget what they did)
***If your taking ur child to the store and if he or she begins to cry because they want something. The best way to remove this habit is to leave everything (the cart) at the store and take ur child back to the car. Put him in the car seat and sit in the drivers seat and read a book and ignore the child. after he or she stops crying ask them if they are ready to go back to the store. I think u need to do this a couple of times so the child breaks this habit.
The child does this cause he or she thinks they are in control of the parent. However the parent needs to show the child that the parent is the one who has the control.
