Setting Limits for my Strong Willed Child

My youngest son challenges me every day in every way possible. I've already read Raising a Spirited Child and my mother (helpful that's she's a librarian) just gave me Setting Limits for my Strong Willed Child. Such good advice:
Know that he's going to test the limits
Know that he's not planning on cooperating
Know that he's going to watch my reactions and then choose his behavior accordingly

OK, now that I know he'll never be cooperative or listen, I feel better. Or do I? Well, I guess it will only last another 16 years or so...
