Stacy I have heard about 123 and I really need to try it. And Knittin' Momma I have actually gone to see John Rosemond speak and he is great. It so hard not to get caught up in the little details of everyday and just remember to use common sense and consistency!!Beth of designPOST Interiorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10365990715445998414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5431658413232890708.post-71190130955452090972011-03-19T17:40:34.972-07:002011-03-19T17:40:34.972-07:00ps- WOW i really needed to proofread!ps- WOW i really needed to proofread!knittin'mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12351766856967836088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5431658413232890708.post-7500289277865730292011-03-19T17:38:39.684-07:002011-03-19T17:38:39.684-07:00I have yet to get try out the books however i am p...I have yet to get try out the books however i am praying fervently they will work--anything by John Rosemond. He is a psychologist in Gastonia who speaks ofetn for CMC and has a national newspaper column and our peditricians office exam rooms are plastered with his articles. He has a very traditional (think 1950's) approach to discipline that is very common sense really and many of us parents have probably experienced parts of it ourselves. It takes alot of the reasoning, pleading, begging, and bribing out of parenting. Thus helping to put the outcomes more in the kids corner if parents are willing to stick to it. Like i said, my son is only 16 mos so I have yet to get into the down and dirty (it really starts more for the 2-3 yr old and up group. They must have a better cognitive base than we are at right now. Just a thought!

I think that the 123 Magic book has helped in our household some (although it's definitely most effective when it's followed to a T, which can be hard to remember or be consistent with!). Oh and also, my sister recommended the Good Night Light-- it's a nightlight that has a sun and a moon, and you program it for what time it changes to light up the moon at night and the sun in the morning-- it has completely trained my nephew to stay in his room at night until the sun lights up, so I am going to purchase one for Vincent ASAP! Just a couple of thoughts, but I don't have any magic solutions. If you hear of any, please let me know!! :)Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03244210854659011057noreply@blogger.com
