Lol yes! I think need a count down as well! Just to be clear, I don't sweetly ask to go potty before naps. I tell them to please go pee. It is not optional, they all must go. He is the only one to whine and cry about it as if we haven't been doing this for months day in, day out.
I will pack up the toys today to take home and explain that is the end of toys from home.
This morning when he brought it (a remote control car). He immediately said "no! My car!". Another dcg wanted to see so (in front of mom) I said, billy, if you bring your toys here, we need to share them. I said give Susie a turn, ok? Susie, go on and have a turn with it." and Susie went to billy, got toy and had a go. Billy starts pouting and crying. Mom LAUGHS at billy, as if his tantrum was CUTE!! Then she says to me "he is usually okay to share as long as he is able to give it to the next person, but when it is taken from him, that's when he gets upset." Bullsh*t. We all know that he was not going to hand this toy over willingly. Ever. And certainly nmot without a fight. I instruct when and who the next payer will be with a hot toy, and I'm not waiting around for the child to come to grips that his/her turn is over and they now must share. Am I being logical with this??
