Tell the child that you will only respond if the request is made in a normal tone of voice.

Then you must stand by your word, reminding the child each time they begin to whine.

Get them to repeat their request in a normal tone of voice.

If a child is ill, in pain or suffering, then you would probably want to relax this rule, but explain why you are making an exception.

Children will only abandon the whining tactic if it's never successful.
