- Get @5 to see that you will not permit '
- the behavior you do not like to happen again. '

- Children love to see how far they can go. This '
- is both natural and positive. Your job is to '
- say, "This far and no farther." Often, this '
- results in a battle of wills. In this battle '
- the parent must win for the child's sake as '
- well as for the sake of peace and quiet. '

- STOPPING UNDESIRABLE BEHAVIOR '
- '
- Part of being a human is wanting to master the '
- world you live in and those that live in it '
- with you. Maturity is gained when we learn that'
- we master our self to stay within bounds. '
- '
- Ask yourself: '
- * Do I believe I have the right to stop '
- @5 from doing something? '
- * How can I intervene in the behavior to '
- see that it is not carried to completion? '
- * How can I ignore @5's protests '
- when I actually intervene? '
- * How can I show appreciation when it stops? '
