BTW...I think this approach is REALLY hard yo maintain longterm. Who wants to live by chart forever? I suggest getting familiar with 123 Magic as well. Glasser does not want parents to give warnings before consequences (especially energized and SHOUTED warnings). But I think the downfall of his system is that some kids are so extraordinarily impulsive that they cannot always catch themselves. I see this with my son who may do or begin any number of idiotic things (ride the dog, wash his hands in his water glass, float food in the dog's water bowl to test its buoyancy) merely because it seemed like a good idea right at the moment he conceived it. Giving nuetral warning counts helps him give pause to think things through and self-correct. But if I get emotional...then they payoff IS the counting.
