The Hair Thing

After talking to several people, I have made a decision about Lauren's hair. She can keep it. Several other mothers I know are having the same problem. All of them just give up and brush it themselves. I have decided to do that too with a twist. I plan on letting her do it first. After that I will brush her hair and give positive re-enforcement depending on how many knots I find. This morning wasn't too bad. She did miss some small knots in the underside, but better then some mornings. Hopefully, it will encourage her to improve her efforts to get the job done right by herself.

That is good parenting changing the situation to positive reinforcement. Good for you.
