The time out chair doesn't seem to work, I thought. What about a chart? So, we made a chart and stuck it on the fridge a few weeks ago. Laura can earn smiley faces or X's each day. Smiley faces are awesome and she likes seeing those. X's are not good. If she gets 1 or 2 it isn't the end of the world but watch out for that third X! 3 X's in one day means a loss of a privilege like playing w/ her bext friend, Sophia. So far this morning she has earned herself 2 X's for the day. We are working on not lying. Oh how I love my strong willed child!
And here she is, off to school on this chilly morning.
Very clever with the chart. This is positive reinforcement because she gets to make the choice for the x or no x. I knew you had it in you Amy.
