HOW MANY PLATES ARE GOING TO BREAK . . .
Before my son stops throwing them and his food on the floor. I was shamed to find out he'd broken one of my nephew's plates today when he threw it on the tile floor before my sister had a second to react. He does this to let you know he's done with his food. However. He has been disciplined EVERY time for it. Tonight, at dinner, I left him in his highchair for a minute. Before I left the room I told him if he was done, to leave his food on his tray. Pre-emptive, right? WRONG! Usually it works. Right now, I'm on the computer and he's in his crib, and there is a plate in 10 pieces on my kitchen floor waiting for when I'm not so angry that I will throw it at the wall.
BREATH

Ah, HELL, it was just a fucking plate.
Gotta go clean it up.

Buy some of those cute kids PLASTIC plates with the characters on them. Maybe that will help him keep it on his plate.
Me, I would take his plate away altogether and just serve his food on the table until he learns that plates do not get thrown on the floor.
Jodi that's what he broke at my house! Tile and plastic don't mix that well.
that's right, he usually gets plastic, but I didn't have one clean for dinner last night, and right after this happened, I told him he wasn't getting a plate again for a long time!!!!
