From time to time in our house, we have had "unfavorable behaviors" (I know, hard to believe). To try and remedy these unfavorable behaviors we usually do; "if you don't do_________ for 30 days you will get a reward" (usually a star wars toy under $10). Well...Cooper had just successfully completed a 30 day run and received his chosen toy. Duncan decided he wanted to try for a toy...his goal...no smacking Cooper for 30 days.
Day 2:
Cooper comes running and crying saying Duncan just hit him. I approach Duncan...
Me: Duncan did you just hit Cooper?
Duncan: silent
Me: Duncan...DID YOU JUST HIT COOPER? Duncan, do you realize this puts you back at day 1?
Duncan: MOM, I DIDN'T SMACK HIM...I PUNCHED HIM!!
Me: Sigh...Duncan, your goal is to not; smack, hit, punch, kick, bite etc Cooper!
Duncan: WHAT??? YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME?! MOM, THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!
