Thanks for the post and replies, folks. I just realized that my MO has always been to stop and address my full attenton to my son and his misbehavior immediately. That works in logical, rational situations, but kids are not that way. (not "things") I have tried ignoring him, a' la- "go to your room if you can't behave, treat people with respect", etc. That hasn't worked. (We live in an apartment, and he begins to physically destroy the door, so I decide to do a hold down, which has worked the best, but is hardly ignoring him and not fully effective, not to mention labor-intensive.)
But there is something there...I can do something new..*thinking, thinking, thinking......*
