Yesterday, The Wild Child did a little chomping, but that led her teacher to find AN EFFECTIVE DISCIPLINE METHOD for her!!!! Yay!
Nose in the corner. She hates it, cries, and it totally hits home that she did something wrong! I am now going to be using this method at home to be consistent. Trust me, there will be plenty of opportunities. I talked with her teacher this AM and she thinks we have struck gold. Relief is washing over me and maybe I'm not the worst mom ever, we just had not yet discovered what was effective with The Wild Child.
By the way, another photobucket steal above- people, if you don't want your photos thieved, make your photobucket account private! That's a message to you, a-1tilemom!

Yay! I'm glad you struck gold! This was a method of discipline that I remember being used on me and I *hated* it.
Good Luck with the WC! She's keeping you young. Or making you tired. Or both.

I hope that works for you - we've had to resort to time outs because our demon spawn would just hit us back if we hit her......
Glad you found something that works!
I love that you're working with the teacher and using the same discipline methods with her to make it consistent. If more parents of kids at my school did that, we'd have a lot less behavior problems...
