1. Modeling
Sometimes we need to just stop talking, and invest in doing. Our little children are a sponge, they learn by watching most. It might not work from the first day, but consistency will pay off, eventually.
If you are trying to teach your child to say “please” when they want to ask for something, and they keep ordering instead. What you might really need to do is to focus on Modeling. You need to focus on how you talk instead of how your little one talk. Do you say please? Not just when addressing him, but when addressing everyone else in front of him. Another way of modeling is stories, pick stories that have a main character who says please instead of ordering others, and with time he will get it, and it will be something he is raised to do.
