A New Technique


For some reason everyone wants to argue with me. I learned a technique a while back about slowly and calmly repeating instructions over and over again when a child is "stuck on stupid."

So, I got tired of repeating today and used my Garage Band application to make a small 10 second recording of myself saying what needed to be said.

And now Jimmy is arguing with the computer.

Which some how is much more comical to me than him arguing with me.

The picture above is right before he said, "You're stupid."

I just found your blog--another parent in the trenches. Repeating slowly and quietly often works with my son as well.
