Well let me give you a little visual of my own personal insanity and how I've resolved it.
My "sweet" little boy has turned into a bit of a monkey.
This isn't really the best picture, but composition wasn't exactly a priority. He loves to make the lighting fixture swing.
Now usually when he gets up there, my eyes pop open and I yell and get him down. A little something like this:
And Jack's reaction to it is this:
And he gets right back up and continues this throughout the day.
Insanity, right?
So last week, a little fed up, I decided to try something different.
No reaction. Just look up and say, "oh, you want to climb, let's go climb on the slide (or insert whatever). And guess what, not getting a reaction from me is really boring.
He is still climbing up, but only once a day and that is a piece of cake to deal with. And that makes me

LOL, I love all of your graphics inserted in your post. That monkey of yours may be up to no good, but he sure is cute. I hope he continues to be bored by you and climb on the slide instead :-)
Hey, my little monkey does the same thing! :) Thanks - maybe I'll try your approach!
good advice.. I'll have to try this! Cute graphics!
I have to agree with Carrie - the graphics are hilarious. I'll have to remember the calm approach. Not always easy!
