Dont you find that the phrase "if you keep doing it this way...I will fire you!..." doesn't work any more? Thats because they by conduct wish you to fire them soonest.
you are right! I have also stopped saying that phrase! I will just ask them to repeat the task until I am happy the result!!! I won't ask them if they have done it or not!!!!! I will just keep on telling them how I want it to be done, and if they can't follow my way, I will ask them to follow my way until I am happy!

Yup, certainly! I have practiced this for some time and it works. At least it makes me not so moody all the time. But there are still areas where it is not just doing it again will solve the problem. Say, throwing my useful stuff without asking, messing my kids' toys up, etc.
I usu remind her in an emotionless tone in these occasions, but will trick her in other areas in order to maintain a mental balane in myself. So don't say I am cheap cos she asks for it!
is your bun bun?
yes, I also trick her in some ways and I will feel better myself!!! hehehe...
yes, why are they so silly? They always mis-place the toys in the wrong box or put 2 different kinds of toys in a wrong toy box!!!!!!
