[quote=Anonymous]There are some things you can to do reinforce the natural consequences. 1) Stop buying snacks. If they want to eat, they need to eat what is made for dinner (or else they can snack on fruits and vegetables). 2) Set a rule -- no eating in their rooms. Only at the table. 3) Put some limits on screens. We use both Norton and Circle (my DH is the IT guy, so I don't exactly know how it all works together) to set a cutoff time for WiFi/data and set total time limits. There's only so much you can do, and the biggest thing is taking your wind out of their sails -- you truly are not responsible for whether they get good grades, etc. But there are some rules and some limits you can do to deal with some of the most annoying things.[/quote]
