Not Quite Connecting

Amelie and I spent a recent afternoon working on learning "No." (We do this frequently!) Over and over again, she went to the computer printer and tried to push buttons. Over and over again, I said "No" and, when she pushed the button anyway, picked her up and sat her down against a wall.

Finally, she responded appropriately. I said "No" and she turned around and walked away! I started to praise her for listening, when she walked right past me and sat down in self-imposed time-out against the wall.

I guess we're not quite connecting yet!
