Wow sounds fun. Not. I will definitly be praying for you guys. I have no advice of my own only what my mother and Pam tell me and that is keep it up, don't give in and be consistant. Oh yeah and don't give in. My mom assured me that if I gave in once it would keep the madness going for a week more. That struck fear into my heart and so I remember her saying that when I want to give in just a little. I hear "more for a week, more for a week" That is all I've got. The advice has worked for me this week though. It took two hours plus of spankings to get Ali to bed one night and the next it only took one hour and tonight I was ready for a battle and the child didn't even cry. I'm so glad I didn't give in. It is much harder with other things like hitting and tantrums, especially around others. Just keep in there. Know I am praying for you and Keep in there some more. You just have to hold out one minute past him. Whatever you guys have decided on you just gotta keep it up. I'm sure he'll live to be five. And then the peace will reign again.

I'm glad to hear the second child is even easier. I'm not sure what the second child phenomenon is. I'd love to be enlightened.

I'll call you tomorrow with the info. I just don't want to post it on the net.

Thanks
