Question
Our 5 year old is incredibly contrary; at times he argues or complains about everything. He'll say he doesn't like what's for dinner before he knows what it is, for example. His tantrums have reduced as I've been more firm with telling him to get himself under control, and telling him to go in his room until he's under control. But the argumentative-ness/complaining/whining is out of control. I'm to the point where I'm going to give a spankings for it. What are your suggestions here?
