Key Way to Avoid Power Struggles: (Cont.)
{"Image DocumentName": "Key Way to Avoid Power Struggles: (Cont.)", "Image ImageDescription": "Set up the consequences for later with clear guidelines as to what the consequence will be and when it will occur. For example, tell a child that for every minute their late leaving for school, they will have 15 minutes in their room upon returning from school. Then let it go. If the child is 5 minutes late leaving for school, they will have 75 minutes in their room. (Remember: if they are actually late arriving to school, they have ran a Red Light and will have the appropriate consequence.) Define the behavior that will eliminate the request. For example, the child asks every few minutes whether they can rent a video game for the evening. Simply tell the child that you are going to make the decision at 5:00p.m., and if they ask between now and then, you will interpret the request as them NOT wanting the video that evening. If they ask, then your answer is simply No . Copyright\u00a9 1995 By Richard C.J.
