Parenting is the toughest job ever. All I advise is for parents to do what works for their family... Honestly, no matter what you do, there's always going to be SOMEONE disagreeing with you anyway! Whether it's your Mom, your Grandma, your Daycare lady or some chick on a fish chat board! ;)

LOL! Don't I know it! Yeah, parenting is a tough job! And, yup, my kids can manipulate with the best of them...that's why I try not to take them shopping anymore. And now that my youngest is toilet trained, she has quite the long, drawn out bathroom routine, along with the battle over wearing something, anything so we can leave the house! At least, I'm now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel with her starting preschool. I can finally have a bit of a rest from the day to day, maybe I can even look at eventually working again. :)

I prefer taking away computer or XM radio priviledges. ;) LOL!

2 problems :p:

There are more computers, but where?
XM- I have 2 more radios ready to go, but where are they? :rolleyes:
And that would be considered theft in the real world. I pay for my stuff :)

:D But it's not theft from a parenting perspective. Besides, it's just taking away your priviledges, not actually taking the items away...and it would only be for a certain amount of time. Hey, it works with my 7 year-old...if I threaten to take his GameBoy priviledges away, he snaps into shape in no time!
 
My kids went to their own beds in their own rooms within a few nights. If they cried, they got attention right away,,but if they wiggled around and grunted and settled back down, not a problem. Mishi8..you are right that infants need to ahve their needs met to develop a sense of security. I couldn't sleep with them in the same room becasue they were noisey. When they were bogger, sometimes they would wake up at night and crawl in bead with us..no big deal, but it's rather crowded and we all slept more comfortably if everyone was in their own space. Our oldest kept wandering into ouir bed itn eh middle of the night...we finally got to where we'd take her back to her bed and lay down with her for a while to keep her company and get her away from sleeping in our bed.
Toddlers can get into this manipulitive behavior, and you ahve to set limits. IMO...kids belong in their own bed. How can you swing from the ceiling in the body harness wearing black leather with them in your bed??? Doesn't it wake then up??
