I haven't even tried with sunglasses for Addison in the longest time. when she was much smaller I got her a few pair at TCP...sorry, not helpful since you've already tried there. I got Gabe a pair at Kohl's but they are too big still.

Are you finding that they are too big, or too small? If too big...I wonder if a sunglass strap would help? I don't remember what they are called. Just tried googling and found this link. It wasn't the strap I was thinking but maybe try One Step Ahead...the fit might be better since they are focused on childrens' products? http://www.onestepahead.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=536723&cmSource=CrossSell&relatedProductId=536731

Ugh. Sorry Y! Does she have any special privileges you can revoke when she gets in trouble at school? Or try positive reinforcement...she gets a sticker for every day she is good and after she collects so many, she gets a prize?

We have been doing the taking away. And were about to start the stickers for one thing. I like positive reinforcement but don't want her to expect a prize for good behavior

But I think will try it.
And each day she doesn't listen we taake something away. Soon she will have no toys!

I was thinking about that too...at what point do you stop rewarding them for doing the right thing?

Like when DH goes out for a beer and comes home when he said he would. He expects a pat on the back. Nope, sorry! LOL Asshat.
