Grinity..
yes I would say the warning would be in line with reset. The neutral emotional approach I think is tantamount to any effective parenting approach. I am most familiar with Glasser' book and a training I attended years (sigh...I'm getting old) ago. So I'm sure that he may have reyoolef some areas since then. I would also assert that most "teach a lesson" punishments fail miserably with almost ANY kid. Lectures amount to wasted breath...and so much of what kids do needs to be practiced and repracticed before they get it right. Someone may have told me a multitude of times how to drive a stick shift, but until I go about trying it myself, I'll be going nowhere.

I'm so glad so many parents on here are so invested in finding a healthier way to reach their kids.
