20 May 2008 Eye Rolling
 |  Category: Claire

Claire has started this OBNOXIOUS habit of eye rolling.  She does it all the freaking time, but most especially when she’s tired.  It drives me up the freaking wall.

Any idea how to get her to stop?

  1. When she’s not doing it, give her directions for an alternative way of expressing her tiredness or desire not to do something. “Claire, when you are tired and don’t want to do something, use your words” kind of thing.

    Really interesting article on Slate about what behavior modification techniques actually work:

  2. Great advice michigoose, I was also thinking not to draw more attention to what she is doing that is driving you crazy. She will just do it more.

  3. I can only quote Bill Cosby, from “Himself”… “Don’t you roll your eyes at me! I’ll roll your eyes back in your head!”

    Hmph. The Cos isn’t as funny in print.
