Not answering questions

What is a "natural consequence" for your child not answering questions?
Our son (almost 4 yrs old) purposefully doesn't answer us if he is grumpy or doesn't like what we are talking about or is unsure, in amongst other things. He will just grunt or make squeaky/whingy sounds or ignore.
We are trying to get him to understand that not answering someone else's questions (or not even questions, but someone saying hello or goodbye) is rude and makes the other person sad/frustrated/confused. We have tried to relate it to him by reminding him of times when people have not heard him or not understood him.
Any thoughts?
Or is just "one of those things"?
Posted 20 December 2012 - 08:25 AM
If he is a "normal" kid with normal cognitive function then he's old enough to understand that he's being deliberately rude. I'd just put him on Time Out and briefly explain how he was being rude and how he made the other person feel. And then I'd make him apologise to the other person.
I'm sure there's other EBer's who'll just say to ignore it or he's too young for Time Out's but that's what I'd do in our family.

I don't think there is any point forcing him to be polite. Model the behaviour you want (we make a point of making eye contact and give a big cheery Hello! when getting up in the morning, coming home, etc) and keep giving him reminders.
I agree with that. I would say that it is not nice to talk like that or that its nice to say hello and goodbye just explain behaviour that you want
Posted 20 December 2012 - 09:21 AM
Sounds like he is avoiding a situation he doesn't like because he either doesn't want to do the thing being asked, or doesn't know the answer. I would look at giving him a few "scripts" to use when he is in this situation. Keep reinforcing that responding is important, and give him options, and make it clear that those options are acceptable. Let him know that he can say "I don't know" or "I don't want to right now" and that this is ok.
The "I don't know" thing you're probably going to be happy with. But the "I don't want to right now" response requires you to think about how you respond in kind. If the response is "well you have to" then that's not going to entice anybody to respond. My approach is to always allow negotiation if feasible, or warmly explain reasons why we have to do things if they just have to be done. You could also talk about giving him the script and space to say "I just need a moment to finish what I'm doing".
Just some thoughts.
Posted 20 December 2012 - 09:28 AM
Two thoughts:
1) Have you ruled out that his behavior is in fact deliberate? There are a bunch of things (e.g. hearing issues, processing issues) that could make it difficult for a child to answer questions/engage in polite "chit chat" and could make them surly in the process.
2) If you know that there's nothing else going on beyond "rudeness," I think Tesseract's suggestion below is a good one because it focuses on giving him some TOOLS that he can use (and I agree with Madame Catty's advice as well).
We do a lot of social role playing with our daughter. I find that when I do it OTT/infuse some silliness, she is much more receptive.
I would also try to "catch him being good" -- that is, praise him when he does in fact use his words appropriately and/or when he responds to something.
Good luck!

Thanks for your thoughts everyone. No issues with hearing or cognitive. He can be and often is very polite, answering questions, asking his own. But just sometimes, he does not. And he is rude about it.
We will keep persevering, similar style to what has already been mentioned with reminders, thinking about others, praise etc. The scripts thing is useful, thanks.
Glad to know it's not just him. Well, not 'glad' but you know what I mean.

I wouldn't use time out for that. I would just keep reminding him without making a huge deal. If I make a huge deal mine do those things more

Start slow
Switching from a 2 a.m. bedtime to 10 p.m. in one night will just have ya laying in bed, twiddling your thumbs for hours on end. Instead, slowly dial back your bedtime, hour by hour, 'til your back to BTS normal.
Work it
Time to get off your booty! Burning some energy during the day will have you ready to go to sleep at a (gasp!) reasonable hour. Dial up a sweat sesh with your darlins, help mom clean the attic and for goodness sake, don't give in to nap time!
Wind down
An hour 'til bed is not the right time for a Starbucks trip with your big sis. Cut out the sugar and caffeine binges several hours before bed, and hey, take it easy! Once the sun sets, forget the cardio and opt for yoga if you need a little exercise. The idea is to prep your body for sleep time rather than get yourself keyed up.
Make your room distraction free
Blinking lights, buzzing phones and tablets just calling your name--not conducive to hitting the hay. Make your bed a place for sleep only. That means no cuddling up with your laptop or textig for hours with your buds. This way, when you lay down and pull up the covers, you'll be signalling to your brain that it's mission: sleep.

I thought maybe the single might be a Ruby Tubo, but I received it as a free stick and it did not come in a tube.
I picked up the 5-pack from Corona during their weekend sale. Got them for $27 after the 10% discount and it included free shipping. They're still on sale for $30 with free shipping. Best price I've seen anywhere on this stick.

Mayor Bloomberg Says He's Done a Good Job of Fighting Illegal Hotels
In today's Mike-Bloomberg-praises-himself news, we've got for you a story about illegal hotels, fire hazards, and, one of the mayor's favorite things -- numbers.
Late yesterday afternoon, the mayor's office released results of the city's ongoing efforts to curb illegal hotels, which are converted residential buildings that are often plagued by dangerous conditions and are generally disliked by elected officials and New Yorkers who live near them (we imagine some tourists may like them?).
According to the mayor, the city's doing a good job!
These "hotels" are buildings that are designated for permanent occupancy, but are converted, often unsafely, into hostels and hotels by landlords who hope to attract tourists or others looking for a temporary place to stay.
In 2011, the city's Office of Special Enforcement issued 1,897 violations to landlords after completing inspections of these converted buildings. This, the mayor says, marks a 244 percent increase from the previous year. That agency also vacated 51 additional locations -- a jump of 75.9 percent from 2010 -- for hazardous conditions, including lacking fire alarms, adequate sprinkler systems, harboring firetraps, etc. This latest data comes after Bloomberg pushed last year for a state bill that strengthened the Special Enforcement office's ability to take actions against these illegal hotels. This office was created under Bloomberg in 2006, with the aim of coordinating and enhancing enforcement efforts across the city.
This latest initiative, and the successful results he is announcing, is right in line with a recurring Bloomberg tactic of working to give City Hall more direct oversight of an issue and then reporting statistics that show how the situation has improved under his closer watch (think: education).
Bloomberg says in the release sent out yesterday: "With the adoption of the May 2011 legislation, we rectified ambiguities in the law surrounding the definition of illegal hotels, allowing for more effective action to be taken against them. Today's news is a clear indication of the progress being made, but we need to continue to be vigilant in order to tackle the issue of illegal hotels and the serious quality-of-life problems and safety hazards they create."
The problem of illegal hotels is also one that irks permanent residents and housing advocates, since it limits the supply of available housing, particularly with rent-regulated and low-income housing. And, the mayor's office says, they harm "the residential character of neighborhoods."
The state legislation, adopted in May last year, defines "transient occupancy" as fewer than 30 days, making it illegal for any single unit of a residential building to be used that way. Penalties for violations are a minimum of $800 and can exceed $2,000 for repeat offenders.

Edi Schwager's curator insight, January 12, 2014 12:14 AM
To me it makes sense as long as people will get the necessary instructions.
MildGreen Initiative's curator insight, January 8, 2014 4:52 PM
And here in New Zealand the connection is denied. The response from most people 'of colour' in Aotearoa has been to pretend 'its something else', just as the 'crime and punishment' crowd like Sensible Sentencing think there is increasing 'Bad' they and inparticular the institutional interests around 'badness' ie: justice, corrections, police, treatment, health etc. pretend that policy enforcment ramped up consequent to 1975 MoDA resulted in a fundemental shift in outcomes upon those in lower decile, lower income, and those who are visable to that enforcement. (ie: male, maori, unemployed... your 'for it!' ). The data for NZ tracks US drug enforcement, in part becuase we have a very efficient unitary police and a media that panders to culture mongering. (police and media are complicit in an incestuous affair).
The 2003-4 visit of Efficacy advocate Clifford Wallace Thornton Jr. highlighted the poxed health response (banned from attending public event, threatened with tresspass/police enforcment) and a clear 'fear of consequences' of those in authority, particularily in Maori health, of being seen to talk to 'the other side'.
Yet NZ could have lead the world.... instead we live in a delusion that somehow we are.... (Psychoactive Substances Act).
Where the rules are the same, the shit is the same....
Kelsey Von Berge's comment, March 2, 2014 12:15 AM
There are ups and downs of legalization of various drugs. Marijuana has been the topic of conversation throughout the US. With legalization, the state should be providing education and information about marijuana so that things like this don't happen. I don't think they should completely blame the overdose on the legalization. They could have gotten it legally or illegally.
Maureen Disque's comment, March 5, 2014 3:16 PM
I agree with Kelsey that the state should be providing information on marijuana now that it is legal. Although, you should know the consequences of drugs when you take them.
Julian Buchanan's comment, March 5, 2014 4:06 PM
Madisen Kelsey & Maureen - please read my comments and the article itself -Marijuana did not kill anybody, you can't die of an overdose, and it has never directly killed anyone.
Kelsey Von Berge's comment, March 2, 2014 12:09 AM
I think that just like decreasing the drinking age, the legalization of marijuana might actually decrease crime and other such bad things. There could be more education about it rather than just don't do it.
Madisen Schimek's comment, March 3, 2014 8:49 AM
I agree with Kelsey. And if anything happens I think it won't happen for a while.
MsHaeussinger's comment, March 3, 2014 9:15 AM
This story could have a point -- if marijuana does become legal across the U.S. it makes sense for big tobacco to produce it and sell it, considering they already have a similar product.

Product OverviewBIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU. WHO''S WATCHING BACK?
|St Martins Pr
|Mfg Part#
|Release Date
|"Filled with sharp dialogue...this work makes its admittedly didactic point within a tautly crafted fictional framework."
|"Terrifying glimpse of the future--or the present."
|"Marcus is a wonderfully developed character: hyperaware of his surroundings, trying to redress past wrongs, and rebelling against authority."
|"The encroachment on individual rights by national security is a primary theme of George Orwell's 1984, and, as his title suggests, Doctorow pays homage to that classic with an impassioned, polemical consideration of the War on Terror that dovetails with themes of teenage angst, rebellion, and paranoia."
From the Publisher
|Editors Note
|Having mastered the cutting-edge technologies of the networked world, seventeen-year-old Marcus and his friends cut school in search of high adventure and find themselves caught in the aftermath of a major terrorist attack on San Francisco and wrongfully incarcerated in a secret prison by a totalitarian Department of Homeland Security. 50,000 first printing.
|Extensively praised by the famed Neil Gaiman and Scott Westerfeld, LITTLE BROTHER follows 17-year-old Marcus as he uses his geek savvy to organize a youth revolt against a Department of Homeland Security gone absolutely mad after a terrorist attack in San Francisco. After a particularly brutal interrogation and the disappearance of his best friend, Marcus is determined to oust the DHS from his city with internet sabotage, an underground teen army, and sheer moxie. Channeling George Orwell's BIG BROTHER, Doctorow has created an intense, thrilling political journey that will provide thought-provoking fodder for even the most apolitical young adult reader. A Publishers Weekly Best Book of 2008 and a New York Times Notable Children's Book of 2008.

Q. In your review of "The Cable Guy," you wrote: "We want to like Jim Carrey. A movie that makes us dislike him is a strategic mistake." Maybe the problem with "The Cable Guy" isn't Lou Holtz Jr.'s screenplay; maybe the problem is Ben Stiller's direction. I've only seen 10 minutes of the "Ben Stiller Show", but in that 10 minutes Stiller made very unfunny, vicious fun of Amish people. Janeane Garafalo (star of "The Truth About Cats and Dogs") was in the skit and afterwards, in a taped segment showing her and Stiller walking down the street talking to each other, she notes her skepticism about just how funny a vicious attack on gentle, peace-loving people can be. Stiller's face seems to register not a single sign he's got a clue what she's saying. (Michael Brant, San Rafael, CA.)

If that new image of Johnny Depp from Dark Shadows wasn't creepy enough, allow me to draw your attention to something that will undoubtedly keep you awake at night.
For the Conjoined 2 art show, special makeup effects artist Kevin Kirkpatrick created super-realistic, and super-disturbing, sculptures of what the animated Beavis and Butt-Head might look like in real life. The results are … nightmarish, to say the least.
(via Laughing Squid)
It looks like Jim Carrey and Napolean Dynamite. lol
Great job though.
These are absolutely amazing (and a little terrifying, I'll give you that)!
I went to school with a guy who looked much like Beavis there.
Butt-head looks like a vampire from 30 Days of Night.
If you've ever visited Ipswich, in Queensland, Australia you'd know that there are many, many more people that actually look worse than this. I shit you not.
I've actually seen people who look like this.
So Beavis is what the Joker looked like during high school.
I was never a fan of the show, but… DAMN! These are cool.
Beavis looks weird, but Butt-head actually looks threateningly dangerous. On second thought, I take that back. While Butt-head looks to be the more dangerous of the two, there's an intensity to Beavis that is also pretty creepy.

Holocaust survivors at Auschwitz 370.
(photo credit:reuters)
BERLIN – Gideon Eckhaus, the head of the Israel-based Central Committee for Jews
in Austria, urged the Central European country on Friday to increase its
compensation payments to Austrian survivors of the Holocaust.Eckhaus
said between 12,000 and 14,000 Austrian victims of the Holocaust across the
world are living in poverty and are in need of medical attention that they
frequently cannot afford.He called on Austria's government to fill the
gaps in compensation. It is unclear if the government plans to increase
Holocaust payments to survivors.According to Eckhaus, Austria's Finance
Minister Josef Pröll agreed a number of years ago to allocate a one-time payment
of 100,000 euros for Holocaust survivors in Israel. However, 100,000 euros would
not cover the social and medical assistance that survivors
require.Eckhaus, who was born in Vienna, fled Austrian Nazism in 1939.
The Nazis murdered his father in Auschwitz and his uncle in
Buchenwald.In a separate development, an Austrian-based Iranian women's
network demonstrated in Vienna last week against the Tehran regime, and called
for international solidarity with the Iranian rapper Shahin Najafi, who is
living in Germany and faces a fatwa death sentence for apostasy.In a
statement released in advance of the protest, Maryam Farzan, from the Iranian
Women's network, said, "The embassies of the Iranian Holocaust—denying regime
serve as a backbone of its terror apparatus abroad and as a departure point for
deadly attacks against Iranians living in exile, including here in
Vienna."Writing on the British-based news website The Commentator
earlier this month, the German-Iranian scholar Dr. Wahied Wahdat-Hagh wrote
about the new fatwa targeting Najafi. According to Dr. Wahdat- Hagh, Najafi's
only crime was insulting a Shi'ite imam.There is an online video game
based in Iran in which Web surfers can practice the execution of "apostates."

Soccer Star Lionel Messi And His Father Accused Of Tax Fraud
Lionel Messi, the Argentine superstar who is generally thought of as the best soccer player in the world these days, has been accused of tax fraud by Spanish authorities.
Reuters reports that Messi and his father are suspected of filing false returns. Deadspin says that, "according to a spokesperson for the prosecutor's office, Messi and his father Jorge defrauded the state of more than $5.3 million from 2006-2009."
Messi plays for Barcelona FC, one of the most powerful professional teams in the world. According to Deadspin, "exact figures are hard to come by, but reports had Messi's 2009 Barcelona contract paying him $14 million a year, and a 2012 raise paying him $16 million annually."
The Associated Press adds that the charge was "lodged by a state prosecutor for the northeastern region of Catalonia on Wednesday. ... Barcelona [FC] declined to comment on the lawsuit. Messi is enjoying a day off after playing for his national team in Quito, where Argentina was held to 1-1 by Ecuador in a qualifying match for the World Cup."

Window of the Church, by Richard Caemmerer
The case for inconsistency
The day after Christmas holds many possibilities for pastors, most of them involving the word rest. I do not typically book office hours on this day. Four years ago proved to be an exception. Bob and Linda called on Christmas Day, requesting an appointment.
Reinventing leadership
Seminaries generally do a fine job of educating the minds of people who are called into ministry. But how well do they form the hearts and spirits of those people? Do seminaries build leaders who are servants of Christ?
An interview with Gordon Cosby
After serving as a chaplain in World War II, Gordon Cosby wanted to create a church that helped people truly become disciples of Christ. Since the 1940s, the Church of the Savior in Washington, D.C., has called people to spiritual discipline and to social mission.
Among Quakers
An 18th-century painting of a Quaker meeting hangs in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. In it a figure, perhaps George Fox himself, stands speaking with such passion that his hand is clutching his breast. Around him are gathered members of the Society of Friends. A woman sits with her chin in her hand. A man's finger is laid alongside his cheek.
There is no 'I' in preach
"A funny thing happened to me on the way to the pulpit today" is as familiar a remark in some churches as "It was a quiet week in Lake Wobegon" is on Saturday radio. Take the recent seminary graduate who comes to her first parish. Sermon after sermon includes a story about a seminary classmate, or about the place where she used to live or about how her wedding plans remind her of something in the epistle. Is there anything wrong with sharing one's life and experiences from the pulpit?
Michael Bransfield, Catholic bishop of West Virginia, seems to be taking his cues from the coal industry when interpreting Pope Francis's recent encyclical Laudato si', which calls for an end to the use of fossil fuels. Bransfield says the pope's call for ending fossil fuel use is qualified: it should happen "only after" greater progress is made in using alternative fuels, and only where economically feasible. In fact, Pope Francis makes no such qualifications. Bransfield is also promoting the idea of "clean coal." A spokesperson admitted that the Wheeling-Charleston diocese has "energy related investments" (National Catholic Reporter, July 1).

Beverly Chandler, Opalesque London:
The Future of P2P Lending in China, a new report from Celent finds that the peer to peer lending market in China has grown from $30m in 2009 to $940m in 2012, and will reach $7.8bn in 2015.
Key findings of the report include the fact that in the past five years, banking assets in China have been growing steadily at 20% per year, but the structure of the Chinese credit market has been irrational, Celent says. "For example, bank loans tend to be given to large enterprises, while small and medium enterprises find it difficult to obtain a loan. The future Chinese credit market will become more diverse, so as to facilitate the provision of bank loans; interest rates will be liberalized, and a national credit system will be set up."
The company finds that the peer-to-peer (P2P) lending model is one example of such diversification. "P2P lending relies on internet technology to carry out transactions; it also reduces risks and gives rise to competition in interest rates. In practice, the advent of the internet has influenced the finance industry to a certain degree, especially in the personal and small and medium enterprise financial markets. For example, AliFinance has created new business models in the areas of payments, unsecured loans and risk management through the introduction of Internet technologies."
Celents research revealed that P2P suppl......................
