[quote=Anonymous]I found that forbidding screens until things are picked up helped a lot. That means your dishes, trash, laundry, backpack, sneakers, etc. (They already need to do their homework before screens.) Then I refuse to drive anyone anywhere. I'm lucky that DH usually is not the problem. I have one kid -- youngest -- who is slower to pick these things up. He will come home from school to his breakfast dishes sitting at his place. That's disgusting and he knows it. He has to wash them by hand and then put them into the dishwasher. Loses screens, sometimes dessert. He does his own laundry at this point. I'm done with his attitude! They know that if I clean up their rooms, 3/4 of their junk is not coming back.[/quote]
