the people that I babysit for (BMW, Mercedes drivers)
have a 3 yr old and when they say 'No'
he stops, smiles, and does it again
finally, after the 5th 'No'
they resort to yelling and screaming at him
I guess I think that often parents have no control
Thats just it though. They are not parenting, they are just dealing with the kid. Just saying "no, stop it" and not showing the child the correct way doesn't do a thing to better the situation. Showing him how to properly do something and engaging him in an activity would help.
