[QUOTE="nvts, post: 182900, member: 3814"] Hi! In the Explosive Child, Ross Greene breaks things down into baskets. Basket A = Safety rules, hitting, etc. Basically, something worth enduring a meltdown over. Basket B = the negotiation bucket. Things that you want done, you don't see eye to eye, so you both discuss and decide a middle-ground that would result in both of you being a "little bit happy". Basket C = Why should I care? Does it really matter if he makes his bed every morning before school? Stuff that can be "left on the shelf" until further down the road. That's pretty much where I am as far as picking my battles!
