Re: [Cal_Boats] Kids, family??? (Allen)

Yeah, he's definitely into making his own choices and we let him as much as is practical. We'll give that a try too. Like you, I'd rather him get used to wearing a harness and using it. Thanks - Paul You might try reverse psychology and lay out all the choices, tell him we get to pick one, and if he doesn't jump at one, say he should get a particular one. Pick one you know he won't like. Kids that age want to exert their control over their world and at 2 the only thing they can do is say NO, so they do that a lot. Give him the chance to say NO by picking another one. "No, I don't want that one, I want this one." But I still say use a harness if your state allows it as they are safer and more comfortable. Allen
