In that example, yes. If you don't argue (or talk right now), then that was only an example you read in the book.

More of the same is to apply to your particular stitch. It could be applied to your pouting. It is not a solution that worked well in the past. To continue displaying that behavior whenever you didn't get things the way you wanted.....would be kind of crazy, right? I mean, in the past it may have served as manipulation, but if you continued with more of the same, how far do you think it would carry you? Instead of doing more of the old behaviors, try something different next time and see if that is a better solution.


It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
