BWhat words? Can you tell me?

什么话？你能告诉我吗？

如果我做什么事他不喜欢，他很快就说踢妈妈、打妈妈，不要妈妈。你知道的，像跟他洗脸或者换衣服之类的事。

AYes, but sometimes he is just not reasonable.

BI suggest you treat him with patience, affection, and respect. If he needs to do something, like go to bed, or be washed, etc., please guide or help him to get it done, but lead him with gentleness.

BMotivate Tony to cooperate by rewarding his good behavior. Do not emphasize punishment for bad moods, etc. Do not threaten him with punishment if he resists the actions you desire.

要和托尼合作好，你就要奖励他给他积极性。不要因为坏脾气就强调要惩罚他。不要因为他不按照你的做就威胁要惩罚他。
