It looks like reanna74 has it under control to me. I don't know that I would be so understanding in all situations. I am less tolerant of the whining. I have a 3 year old and whining is not an option. Of course if he is not feeling well or sick, that it different. Whining to get his way, not going to work.
I applaud reanna for consistency. That is what works. If you're not consistent, your kids will find your weakness and attack it. Keep up the good work.
