Maybe coco is just slower academically?

Not Coco.. Was talking about the other little girl who was 18 months and doing animal noises.

Just shocked at the parents who put their kids outside. At one point they threatened the LO with bed or outside and it was dark.

I think she did the right thing not praising & making a big deal of it- I never praise for eating or critiscise for not I just let him decide. I don't want food to become an attention gainer or a battle. I was really impressed with how she managed not to react.... & like Blah11 I'm rarely impressed by Cherry! I presumed that she hadn't been starved as such for 11 hours coz there was cleau juice around & I assumed she'd had milk - dunno though?

I really like cherry, her programmes are really interesting. It did show the extremes of different types of parenting which was interesting. I'm not a parent myself but I've always believed in balance and think that maybe a little bit from each "type" would be best.

Didn't like the overly strict parents though, I thought the putting them outside for time out was a bit too extreme and animal-like, what's wrong with a naughty step/corner?

I see what you mean, and when it comes to naughty stuff, or not eating then I ignore, but if he eats I praise then hopefully he will do it more often!
