If you do the work now it will pay off later. I wish that I had done more of that when my kids first came home so that maybe I would not be dealing with what I deal with now. You might not get the warm fuzzy love everytime. Keep up the good work with those little guys. GOd is on your side to help you through.<br />Love yaStaceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08843585648381244011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2266259241920095158.post-75989668634621472602010-08-19T13:06:52.869-04:002010-08-19T13:06:52.869-04:00I had never heard of the concept of holding time p...I had never heard of the concept of holding time per se until your previous post, but I do something similar with our children, too. I usually do it when they are getting into a tizzy and need to calm down and nothing else seems to get through to them. Our 2nd child can be quite aggressive at times while doing this and I've been pinched, kicked, etc, and she is our most petite child! We had one of those awful drawn out sessions last month and her behavior since has been much better. I'm glad that you have the positive results you see in your daughter to keep you going!!Becky Dempseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08659861040874049868noreply@blogger.com
