Hi MN
I am just so completely stunned that I have to ask whether I am missing something.
So we - (being dh, 7yo dd & myself) decided to snuggle up together on the sofa to watch the dances from last night's strictly again. Just before dh pressed play DD had an outburst about something and ended up pinching me and biting my arm out of frustration. DH waited til she had finished and then said, "OK can we carry on with strictly now?" . I said I think that that would be rewarding her and that she should have some kind of consequence. He said that carrying on with our plan is not a reward. I disagree but even so, what is the consequence? Surely the consequence is that she doesn't get to participate in watching until she has at least apologised? He said no, I should just ignore her and pressed play. I walked out of the room but of course I am now the unreasonable one. Am I Really? If I am I feel like I must be bonkers. The two of them are snuggled up as if nothing has happened.
