I've cut way back on my yelling from the other room too (not that our apartment is spacious to begin with, lol) and it makes a big difference. Thanks for your input!

Lately I have been working harder on bribing the kids because I was at the end of my rope, and of course it wasn't working. On the worst day I stumbled upon Nicole at ImperfectFamilies.com and she was my lifesaver. Mostly common sense, but lots of good food for thought.

I'm trying to be more present with the kids. Instead of yelling from the other room, which I found out I was doing a lot, now I go to them, give eye contact, make full sentences, look for meaning, the deeper motivation. The real reasons for acting out are usually quite different from "I hit her because she hit me".
