KrabbyPatty That would be effective for some children, but not all. Although I don't have as severe a problem as you do, my daughter, now 3, will completely tune me out sometimes (sometimes being MOST of the time). She will completely ignore me at times. While this may...

Ashida @Ashida (1370) • United States 30 Dec 06

When someone responds to your post, do you return the favor?

Ashida @Ashida (1370) • United States 3 Jan 07

If someone's nice enough to respond to my post, I almost always respond to one of theirs, just as a way of saying thanks. Does anyone else do this? I've also found it a good way to find some interesting posts.
