Bribery. It can be a slippery slope.
Have you used it? Better yet, will you admit to it?
You know your pre-child self and all the things you swore you would never do, was bribery on this list? Have you gone back on your word?
I rarely use this, rarely, I KNOW it is a slippery slope, that once you use it, you always have to...
BUT we have so much chocolate in our house, and I really needed to get out of the house this morning....so I did it, I offered Chocolate to get little people dressed and out of the house. And you know what... IT WORKED!! LIKE A CHARM!!
Two year old toddler got her shoes and coat on with no fuss, all the while reciting "chocat""chocat". No tears, no tantrum, and only a small "chocat" beard to show for it
So, will you admit to using this? Special occasions? Everyday Parenting tactic?
Come on fess up.... make the rest of us feel better!!
You mean some people actually DON'T use bribery as a parenting tool?? LOL
