• Do not make your child look at you when you are angry.
• Say “no” firmly but not loudly.
• Have your child pick up his toys and put them away in the toy box.
• Have your child correct his mistakes, clean up his own messes, and apologize to others as needed.
• Ignore your child if he throws a temper tantrum in public; when he gets it out of his system, continue with what you were going to do.
• Send your child to his room if he throws a temper tantrum at home.
• Time-out minutes should correspond to the age of the child, usually lasting one minute per year of age.
• Give a child who bites himself a chewy tube.
• Remove objects of obsession from sight if they are inappropriate or affecting the quality of life.
• Write out rules for a child who can read or use pictures if he cannot.
• Tell your child often how good she is.
• Find things your child is doing right or well and praise him.
• Calm yourself if your child is upset.
• Hug and kiss your child often; happy children do not act out as much as unhappy children.
• Give attention to appropriate behavior and ignore inappropriate behavior.
