[jh1]

I usually repeat myself in normal tone then if the steps are not being made I raise my voice, then if that does not get her moving I yank her ass up!

Sounds like you are a signle mom? How old is the kid? He is challenging your authority as children do. You may want to establish a behavior chart based on what he is suppose to do and what you want him to accomplish. Put it on the fridge and utilize it as a rewards system. If he completes the task he gets a check or a sticker or whatever. X number of these equal a reward. If he miss behaves, no check and there should be some sort of "punishment". this can be a time out (NOT IN HIS ROOM WHERE ALL HIS FUCKING TOYS ARE!) or early to bed, no after school special, whatever the fuck you decide. Explain it to him clearly and stay consistent.

If that does not work, a sharp crack on the thigh usually will.

Some times kids act up becuase it gets the attention, do you guys spend positive time together?

Yes, I am a psychologist!

lol thanks but i wasnt asking for advice. No im not a single parent but I was at one time. i was curious what techniques other parents use. my kid is a good kid and yes we spend lots of positive time together. i too have a degree in psychology and I spent many years training Foster Parents on proper discipline techniques. And we dont keep all his toys in his bedroom. He's got a dresser and a bookshelf loaded with books in his bedroom, and all his sports trohpies too. his toys, games, tv and xbox are kept in his playroom. lol @ you're a psychologist!

I pretty much do the same as you smurfy. I'll tell her to clean her room or something, and she'll complain a little. I say, "too bad, do it anyway." Sometimes I'll give in a little, and let her do it in 15 minutes or something.
The main thing is to have reasonable expectations, and back up what you say. My kid is pretty good though. Nothing like me as a kid.

She's 92.
I have custody. Her mom lives in another state, and she goes down there 3 times a year, around 2 months total.
