Out of the mouths of babes...

Jessica is generally very good but recently I have started using the ‘3 chances’ system if she is being a pickle. If she’s doing something and I tell her ‘no’ and she carries on, I say ‘that’s one’ and warn her that twice more and there’ll be a consequence (e.g. going indoors when playing out in the garden). So far we seem to always get to three and the consequence but I think it’s starting to sink in as yesterday she was wandering about and saying ‘no’ and holding up her finger and then saying ‘one’ which was very funny.
