The terrible twos is what all new parents fear and the word "NO!" is what all new parents don't want coming out of their toddler's mouth.
Even though we are still far away from the terrible twos, we are already catching ourselves telling William no a lot (ex: don't pull out the electrical plug, don't lick mommy's shoes)
So the other morning, Eric said to Julie:
E: I know how to solve this problem!
J: how?
E: so for the really bad stuff we will say no but for the stuff that is not too bad we will just say "you shouldn't"
J: why don't we just do the Taiwanese way? Just call their name in a harsher tone. This way he won't associate the behavior with a specific word and he will learn his name too :)
