Direct instruction

Andreas and Matias were over yesterday and I ended up having to let Corwin game on one of my computers so all three could electronically rot their brains simultaneously. While Corwin was gaming, I noticed that he had bare feet. Upon inquiry, he confirmed that his feet were cold, so I told him to get up and put some socks on. He obtained a pair from upstairs and started putting them on in my office. As soon as he had one sock on, I grabbed him and tickled, because one of the house rules is that I get to tickle Corwin anytime I catch him wearing exactly one sock. It’s all part of my effort to teach Corwin to think ahead about the consequences of his actions.
