Yeah in extreme cases it can take 2-3 repeats. for example friends of ours come over for dinner, their 5yr old boy is difficult always would ruin dinner.. a total tornado hell bent on destroying the house but he was always stoked to be here at first. So we say to our friends he's going home if he misbehaves just warn him, then take him if he acts up again etc. Our friends hated to miss dinner but we said 'trust us' so sure enough after the first warning they took him home and he threw a total shit fit, they almost couldn't get him in the car. Second dinner a week later same thing happened, he just had to try it on and see if he could get away with it. 3rd dinner was a warning.. and he was an angel. Not only that his mum was amazed at how he changed in general once that boundary was set and he knew she meant business. Now this sort of parenting takes consistency and perseverance. The path of least resistance is smacking, put em on the TV or give them lollies so they'll shut up which basically does nothing to solve their behavior issues. The above method is one of dozens that when mastered will change the whole dynamic of your kids behavior.
