I need to focus on giving positive attention when something good happens and that I want to continue, instead of letting it go as “what he should have been doing.”
People doing this are also doing these things:

I’m not sure if what I do counts as nagging or harping or whatever. But I read a great tip. If you have something to say or some need to express, say it in four sentences or less—and then stop talking. That’s what I need to practice, because usually I will go on and on, particularly with my husband. He gets quiet when confronted and then I feel anxious and won’t shut up. Then he gets quieter. A vicious cycle.
my mouth is so much faster than my brain. i dont even think when im mad so i tend to nag. i never thought i was till my partnet told me called me a “nagger”....
i will try my hardest to breath and think before i “nag”. i think what my child would think if she hears me say those hurtful words.
I nag my mum evry two minutes.
1.I’ll nag my dad insted.
2.Have a cup of tea and a biscuit to keep my mouth busy.
3.Stuff a pillow in my mouth to shut me up.
Tiffany cant beleive Summer is almost over~
I let alot of little things bother me. If something is not put back where I got it or someone is chewing to loudly or took the long way to the store I get upset. I am going to refrain from always “correcting” everyone.

If I ask my kids nicely to do something they respond better. Duh. And if they don’t do it all, they don’t get a ride to their buddies house or the 5 bucks to spend at 7-11 for junk. Nagging is just annoying.

I did however, find a way to stop nagging my son to get out of bed in the morning. I just put my cell phone next to his pillow and put the alarm on to an annoying ring tone. He’s not happy but he’s up in time

Asking nicely one time and then walking away can sometimes work. Just don’t understand the attitude I get from asking my kid to do something even after only asking once. I thought teenage boys would be easier to handle than girls.

I want my kids to just do what I ask them the first time I ask them to do it. Otherwise I just sound like a nag, then I yell, then we all get upset. I want my kids to love me not look at me like a hag and a nag. I love them why don’t they just listen to me
