I've been putting it off b/c its a lot of work and commitment. I think part of the success has to do with her wanting to earn the stickers. But most of it has to do with me forcing myself to acknowledge her successes and stop focusing on punishment. She got a lot of praise today and the more I praised her, the better she behaved.
Ladies, if you have ever given it consideration I would highly recommend it! It's been really great so far. It's obviously much easier to do if you are at home with your kid to witness the activity. But yesterday at daycare pick up I asked one of her teachers about her day and, in front of Em, we talked about how she used good listening ears, and she didn't have any accidents. And I made a big deal of saying "Oh! We get to put two stickers on your chart for today." I'm finding it works really well as a substitute for punishments too. Like if she does not use good listening ears, I don't put her in time out or take her toys away. I just say "Oh, that's too bad. You don't get to put a sticker on your chart for using good listening ears." And she gets really upset about it so I know she's making the connection. I told her that on Friday I would paint her toe nails if she got 50 stars for the weeks, which she will earn
