too much..

yesterday, ken was really out of sort and being extra naughty.. i was so mad that i confiscated his beloved Optimus Prime and placed it high up on top of a cupboard.. i told him, "i will keep the toy there until tomorrow.. and if you are a good boy from now til tomorrow, i will give you back.".. barely 10minutes later, he acted up again.. i confiscated his 2nd Optimus Prime and told him the same thing.. 1hr later, again he acted up.. i told him to stop his nonsense or i will put a 3rd transformer toy of his on top.. and guess what he did?.. he said rather loudly, "TOO MUCH".. kind of a retort/grumble.. and guess what EM did? Instead of having a united front with me, he laughed out loud.. grrr.. that's promoting ken to be a smart aleck, no? but, it was funny lar.. cos we did not expect him to use such words..

anyway, he is a good boy today.. my maid told me, ken good boy today.. so, i reinforce and told him.. "You are a good boy today. So, mommy will give you back your toys. And if you misbehave again, what will mommy do?".. All he said was, "Don't want".. *sigh*.. he has a lonng way to go..

the method above is withdrawal of privelege i think.. these days macam-macam (all sorts of) theory.. if last time, my mom will just belasah (whack) us habis-habis (upside down) with a rotan (cane)!.. let's hope he remembers and will behave within limits.
