It was awesome to see it, in the Globe in London a few years back.
I know it is time to go to bed when I try to take my cursor on the far screen and guide it over to the laptop. First and second screen attached? no problems...clicking on my doc on the laptop? No dice.

Beta forum is exploding with what I like to call "the XI crowd".
Aka the hyper self entitled guys that freak out if something THEY feel like they deserve is "wrong" or one second overdue.
To the extent the entire thing is crashing

if the threat of the punishment doesn't stop the behavior, you are using the wrong punishment.
PARKER! go find my guide to child punishment!

Try positive reinforcement. don't get upset when she does something bad, but do go crazy happy when she does stuff good. She's gonna do what gets her attention. If she's always getting attention from being bad and getting punished, she's gonna associate punishment with emotional fulfillment and end up dating douche bags.

She's going to get her doorknob locked so she can't get out until we open her door.

Been done. It worked for like, a month? She stares at me when I tell her to do something, so I tell her again...and then she continues to give me this stupid stare. She thinks ignoring me is funny and tries to hide the smile (she's terrible at it).
It's harder because she's not even my kid...so by the time I got to her at 3 and a half she was already set in her ways.
Hev actually has a good point from a psychological standpoint.

I have probably said this before but read 1984...
All people, children included, have something they find intolerable. Your goal as a parent is to find and exploit that pressure point to mold your child into an obedient, subservient young gentleman/lady in public. Sometimes it's the time out corner, sometimes it's a spank on the butt. No matter what it is, you will know when you find it when the mere threat of it straightens the kid right out.
If you find yourself repeating any disciplinary action more than once a week you need to try something else.
You can always tell the stupid parents with no understanding of this concept. Their kids are the ones on leashes in the mall throwing the temper tantrum under the clothes rack. Their kids always have that feral glint in their eye.

I wish I had a nickel for every parent that looked at me like I was crazy when I told them to try a different discipline technique until they found one that works. The thought never crosses most people's minds an they just repeat whatever was used (often ineffectively) on them. If that doesn't work alot of them just shrug their shoulders and give up.
Insanity is repeating the same action over and over and over and over and over and expecting a different result.

Some kids are afraid of the dark, for some kids its isolation, it could be a number of things; physical labor/exercise, loss of cherished objects, loss of privileges heck even foods
She's learned bad behavior. At that age she's like a dog and you have to train her. It'll be tough and literally take the rest of her life. You can't expect someone that age to make a mature emotional decision. You as the adult have to decide if you're in for the long term commitment. If she ignores you. *** it. don't give her attention. eventually she'll give up. I can't imagine how hard it is to raise another persons child, but if you are going to do it, start thinking of it as your own child.
I never had a problem with my own...then again, I was there from birth so it was of course easier. And he's a boy...lol
It's a lot harder than I imagined it would be. I thought by now she'd see me as a "mom" figure, and she told me she wished I could be her mom...she told us in the car that she wished my mom could be her grandmother too...she loves her lol
She has this switch in her though. I can't find out what's triggering it.
EDIT: I didn't mean to turn this into a therapy session rofl

I have raised five children and only two were my own. And each of them had a different punishment that was unbearable to them. That the mere mention of STOPPED THEM IN THEIR TRACKS and immediately corrected the behavior. One was spanking, I spanked him once in his whole life. he is nineteen and I can still say "you aren't too old for me to put you over my knee!" and he will stfu. One was the timeout corner. etc... Each kid has a different breaking point. Find it, then apply pressure.

Once they LISTEN to you, then you can use positive reinforcement or ninja mind control or whatever.

I was like...go play with your wrestlers! So he did that for 20 minutes...go draw! So he did that for a little bit (my mom requested a picture anyway) Then he was just laying in bed...hanging off the side. I walk in "what are you doing?" and he just groans at me lol He said he was going to be so far behind on his youtube videos <.<
