Our 8 year old foster to adopt daughter responds very well to having her TV taken away. When she was placed with us, she had attitude issues. You know...rolling the eyes, doing the head neck wave thing, and walking away while being talked to about something she had done wrong. We hung a small dry erase board on the fridge and told her that every time she cops an attitude we would put a point on the board, if we got to 3, she would lose a privaledge starting with loss of the TV. We have never reached 3. If she has any points on the board, we start to remove them 1 at a time for each day of good behavior. We call this the Bad-itude board. It really works for us.
