mickyc... you've hit the nail on the head. Mom and Dad are lovely people, but they cater to him. He still comes in my door in the morning with a soother in his mouth because they can't stand to "make him cry by taking it away", yet as soon as he comes in, he puts it away and doesn't touch it again until they pick him up. I'm just at a loss. Other than the attention issue, he really is well behaved, but the problem is that Mom and Dad have made him the boss and I just can't see this improving unless they discipline him at home too. Mom has admitted to me that they've never put him on a time out.
