He whines for the littlest stuff, from being told to do something, to not getting his way, or messing up on PS2. It is horribly annoying. He also makes obnoxious noises most of the time, screams for no reason, and is just all around LOUD. and no, he is not retarded or autistic. just annoying.

Don't get mad but you have allowed him to do this behavior! Tell him that you will not allow it any longer. Tell him that he is older and should notice that others do not act like that and he will not mature like the other kids who are starting puberty now with him.Tell him that if he whines or makes unnecessary loud noises or fusses about doing what you tell him or that is expected to do daily or weekly, go to his room and take the most prized possesion first!! If it is his video game or computer get it and he doesn't get it back until he is firmly and steadly over the bad behavior.If he whines again, get another great item. Keep doing it until he stops. Then tell him that if he goes a week without whining he can start getting things back one item for each week. You must also take the tv and activities(sports event,movie, party,etc) away. You must never give in-ever- or it will not work! Your husband(?) must also go by it for it to work.This is similiar to what Dr. Phil says to do. He says to take everything out at once down to the carpet and just leave a mattress and and blanket in his room and then after a given time that he has improved to bring things back one at a time.Best wishes because if you do not get it done now you are in for a horrible teen experience!!

Tell him he is acting like a 3 year old and to stop it. If he doesn't stop it, which he probably won't, then give him "time outs" whenever he starts with the whining thing. Make him stay somewhere that he doesn't necessarily care about being. Like don't make him stay in his room because he probably has stuff to do in there and don't let him watch TV or play any games. Each time he whines like that give him a time out and make him stay in the area you pick for whatever length of time, maybe 1/2 hour. Good Luck

Before you ask him to do something try offering him allowance for his chores. Talk tom him about the responsibility and set a pay rate, it might make him feel a little more responsible and older!
As for the PS2, just turn it off when he begins towhine about messing up, and tell him everytime he does it he wont be able to play for a whole day. Then if he whines about the above, I would whip him.
I agree with the spare the rod spoil the child rule!
Hope this helps, Good luck!

I know this is easier said than done but just do not give in.If he is told to do something make him do it, If he wants some thing and you say No don't give in and if he is whining while playing video games shut them off. Let him know that this behavior is not OK and will gain him nothing but attention he does not want. No matter what stick to your guns and sooner or later he will come to the conclusion that this dose not work for him. Also reward him when he behaves the way you would like him to. Good luck

Best way is ignore the behaviour. So if he asks for something when he's being all whiney just say 'Ask me like a proper grown up, or don't ask me at all'. If he continues whining ignore him until he stops. Then if he asks properly award the behaviour by making sure you respond straight away. That way he'll realise that asking properly getts your attention better than whining.

have you heard of ATTENTION, ATTENTION, ATTENTION!!.It sounds like this is what he is looking for , if you believe this is not the reason then you may want to rethink. Whether it is positive or negative attention, attention is attention and children will do anything for it. Try sitting him down and talking on his level, or take away the Ps2, proper discipline is important and as parents we tend to give in just so we don't have to listen to the whining or deal with the situations. we need to remember this is a 10 year, their communication skills are not at the level ours are at.

I use to tell my son to go outside and tell it to the wind and not to come back into the house until he had it all out of his system. We were lucky enough to live on a corner lot. One side of the yard faced a very busy street so the traffic noise out did his screaming and yelling. This method worked for us, because for about 6 months his trips to the side yard became less and less. He's grown now and mentioned to me one time that he always felt better after blowing off steam in the side yard. He uses the same method on his children.

maybe try telling him if he is going to get fusterated playing ps2 you will take it away, and if he whines for not getting what he wants make sure you never do give it to him. He may just think that if he whines enough he will get what he wants, so dont give in. It should pass soon, good luck

My daughter used to whine a lot. I told her I can't hear when she uses a baby voice and if she needs something or wanted to talk to me she had to use her big girl voice. (started around 4). Now when she starts I just say .. I'm sorry honey , I can't hear you did you want something..She will change the whine and we move on with a thank you and a hug from mom.

Whines for messing up on a video game? He sounds a little addicted. If you catch him whining because he messed up on a game then take it away.
If he wines because you asked him to do something then make him do two things. If you tell him to clean up his room and he whines then make him clean up his room and take out the garbage.
If he whines because he didn't get his way then just ignore him. In my house--whining gets you nothing.
