I am amazed at how efficient my quick roughed up (slam him with my push down on the ground  and say without yelling a firm 'sleep' when he disobeyed for the 100th time to leave Charlotte alone at 10:30pm. I had never ever been abrupt but only kissy cuddly with Billy up to now. He is now almost 5 years old and I have had him since he was 7 months. He was shocked and unhurt by my demosntration of discipline. I hope I dont do that too often though because it was very very good I think but I dont think i could have it so well done next time (the shock of billy would be gone).

Charlotte was trying to sleep on the mattress and Billy would not leave her alone to play though it was 10H30pm and I had politely and kindly aksed him about 5 times. Hubby had refused to look after Billy in his room to let us all sleep down here.
