So, I can't believe my first post is about this but here it goes .....
One of my dd's has a habit of crying as soon as she sees work that "looks" difficult or time consuming or boring or whatever. And I'm just fed up with the tears! And no amount of words have helped. Normally I say something like,
"Kids don't cry at school when given an assignment." ...or other UNsympathetic words. To no avail. So today I tried something different since I noticed she only cries with me, not when others are looking.
READY??
I grabbed my camera and took pics of her everytime she started crying. Not that I would ever put them on my blog!?! I'm not that demented .... ;-/
I had to grab the ol' camera 4 times. But each time she stopped immediately!! I wonder how long this will work? Will it cure her? Is this normal or a character flaw? Why am I asking q's since I haven't shared this blog with anyone? When should I advertise it? Hmmmmmm .....
