Does that count as a bribe? Sometimes when he doesn't want to get into his car seat I offer him gummy bears. That I know is a bribe! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-bribe-that-you-used-on-your-lo#post-2185645 Thu, 21 May 2015 11:04:19 +0000 Mama Bird 2185645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I found him a dime while trying to get him to leave the playground. He got all excited and asked if we can use it on a coin kiddie ride next door. It takes quarters, so I said no but we can buy a hot dog with lots of dimes. Hmm... I don't remember learning what money is for at his age :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-bribe-that-you-used-on-your-lo#post-2185642 Thu, 21 May 2015 11:02:54 +0000 Dandelion 2185642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>M doesn't take bribes.</p> <p>D was bribed with yogurt last night. But, it was actually a silly bribe, cause I just told him he had to say I was right to get it, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-bribe-that-you-used-on-your-lo#post-2185622 Thu, 21 May 2015 10:53:10 +0000 cascademom 2185622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He could watch a video if he got dressed this morning. There was a timeout in there too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-bribe-that-you-used-on-your-lo#post-2185611 Thu, 21 May 2015 10:49:38 +0000 mrskc 2185611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Let him hold my hand at dinner table if he tried some salmon! It's different but that kind of bribe works really well for him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-bribe-that-you-used-on-your-lo#post-2185540 Thu, 21 May 2015 10:25:10 +0000 rachiecakes 2185540@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>popsicle if he finished his dinner </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-bribe-that-you-used-on-your-lo#post-2185518 Thu, 21 May 2015 10:18:05 +0000 yellowbird 2185518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: Dunkin donuts if she didn't throw a tantrum in the car yesterday </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-bribe-that-you-used-on-your-lo#post-2185517 Thu, 21 May 2015 10:17:11 +0000 Cherrybee 2185517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>E is still a little young to understand bribes, really, but we used a bribe-style distraction the other night that backfired! E LOVES her wellies (rain boots) and is always asking for them.... so the other night, when she was throwing a tantrum because I stopped her drawing on the furniture and wouldn't give her the pen back, I said "ooh, lets put wellies on and splash in the puddles". She was SO excited.... and DEVASTATED when we discovered that we had left them at Nanny &amp; Grandad's house. We tried cake, juice, TV but the only thing that would stop her crying and wailing "wellies, wellies" was me saying "ooh, look, here's that pen you were playing with. Do you want it?". Which she did, of course. Epic fail. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/last-bribe-that-you-used-on-your-lo#post-2185505 Thu, 21 May 2015 10:11:56 +0000 autumnlove 2185505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used lollipop bribes during haircuts on Tuesday and it worked well for LO 1 but not so much for LO 2. :crying: </p>
