can anyone plz help me how to discipline my 3yr old son?

get down to their level. Keep eye contact when you are talking to them. BUT*****don't intimidate them*****

Kneel or sit on the floor to make sure that you have their undivided attention. (don't hover over them)

Be persistent

Repetition and positive reinforcement.(Don't say you are being bad. SAY I know you are a good listener, can you show me how good of a listener you can be?) It is work and you have to really plan what to say.

By building up their esteem they will want to make you happy for the encouragement they are receiving.

Personally I do not recommend candy or toys for praise just positive remarks and stickers. The candy is not good for them and is starting bad habits with eating and sugar.

As for the crying over what they get or don't.

Tell him before you go in the store if he can have anything. OK you can get 1 toy. Give him choices between three different ones. Then if after he acts up DO NOT GET him the toy. He will cry all the way home but down the line he will realize he what he has to do to get special things and apply the positive reinforcement.

"I know you can be a good boy for my today right?"

*You are my big boy! Right? Well my big boy doesn't act like that!!

*I want to get this for you but if you choose not to listen then mommy can not get it for you.

Don't forget to get down eye to eye.

Good luck hope this helped!!!!

My daughter is 3 and also has selective hearing. I tell her to stop playing and look at my face when I talk to her so I know she is listening. This works well. If she says or does something inappropriate I try to take care of the situation immediately. Just stay consistent and I've realized that a little spank (not to cause pain but to have an action to go with the verbal discipline is sometimes necessary). Good luck!

I went through the same thing when my kids were little. It's common. The thing to do is to never lose control and let the kid dominate the situation. Often times when my kids acted up, especially in public, was to go home. Cut the trip short and just go home. After a few times, the chaos stopped. All I would have to say is "we're going home!" and the kids would stop their behavior. Also, check the timing before you make any threats, are the kids tired from being out too long ? Are they hungry? If they are either, it's really not their fault they act up...so assess the situation first then respond calmly and firmly. Also bringing distractions and treats with me helped when it would be tough to cut a trip short...hope this helps.

I don't have experience with my own children (20 month old, and 22 weeks prego) but I did work in a daycare.

I took a course on child discipline and have a few ideas.

When you take him to the store and he acts up, leave. Let him know that if he is going to act that way then you will not take him to the store any more. Find a sitter and don't take him with you anymore.

To get your child to listen, don't yell. Look at them and talk in a soft voice, if he wants to know what you're saying he will quiet down.

I don't know if that will help you at all, but good luck.

First off, no spanking... Grab his arm firmly, and sit him down in a corner (you may want to hold him there, and make sure you stay calm.) Tell him that he may not move from that spot. Make him make eye contact with you as you slowly, quietly, firmly tell him that he is not to embarrass you like that. Make sure you have specific examples. Tell him that as a result of his behavior, he will not get any more toys. Take away his desserts and play dates. Put him in his room and keep an eye on him.

Most peoples answer is either leave or dont ever take them to those places.How is a child to learn whats acceptable in public if they never go.My suggestion is ,ignore him and the tantrums,if they get to bad take into restroom till calm down,and if it continues,barely spat that bottomside enough to get there attention.What worked on mine was teaching them if your good and dont ask for anything you can get a small treat.It usually does the trick but stick to it,if there not good then they dont get the treat.

my daughter will be 3 in July she doesn't have selective hearing but she is hard headed sometimes. i sometimes have to give her a spanking, timeouts work too. i don't like to spank her but it necessary sometimes. i would also try talking to him firmly you know verbal displine
