Landon has been expressing his anger, frustration and even happiness with hitting. Not particularly in mean way, but a more “hey, look at me, I want the attention” kinda way. Time outs don’t work for him….and the Book 1,2,3 Magic was a waste of my time & money….so we are anxiously awaiting a new seminar that I will be attending called The circle of security. But until then here we go….

While at Walmart the other day, Landon saw this Lego set with the Toy story 3 characters on a train. Right up his alley, so of course 20 minutes of, ” Please please please” came without breath in between. Jesse & I decided to try an experiment. We are willing to do anything!!

We told Landon that we will not be getting the toy today. Instead, if he was a good boy for 1 week with no hitting than he could come back to the store and buy it. Needless to say, it was the last one so we bought it that day and hid it from him. We have been reminding him every morning that we don’t hit, hitting hurts and if he is a good boy he can get his Buzz Choo choo  as he calls it.

Today, no hitting….I don’t think we will wait the entire week to give him the toy. If he has continued on this path, I plan on giving him the toy on Friday or Saturday. He already knows that if he does hit, he will get the toy taken away. So, I will update you all in a few days!!

Take a look at the infamous toy that may change how my child reacts!!!

Night all-JOY
