Yup i have done that to Just the other day he was being so sweet he was pushing his brother on the swing the were being sooooo good and i told them i really appreitiated them being good, I also praised Trieden for helping his brother and being nice. I kid you not 5 min later he was fighting with him i was standing right there and as i told Trieden not to get on the back of Kalebs bike he flipped him over and hurt him

sorry i guess i needed to vent i was just in such shock when i woke up

I watch the super nanny and i try to apply her techniques but they don't seem to work i am not saying all of them don't cause i have had sucsess with the time out. But at 8 yrs old where do you draw the line i mean really he knows better.
