Well she had a major tantrum yesterday. I changed my MO and completely ignored her. Then I got busy doing something she enjoys helping with a LOT. Baking. She loves to mix stuff. She surprised me by continuing to roll on the floor and scream for about 10 minutes. She was even a little horse by the time she stopped. Finally she quit. I didn't get another argument or peep even out of her the rest of the evening. She helped and cooperated so much better. Guess all it took was changing my MO. Thanks. Hope it works next time too.
