[quote=Anonymous]If you haven't tried the following, here is my suggestion. - talk about the routine, why it works, and how it doesn't - if it doesn't work in spots brainstorm together - let DH take ownership of some of the process - maybe he puts one of the kids together by himself? Or both? - maybe DH can develop a special routine with the kids that is just his? Like a special book/song/way of brushing teeth? Not saying this is you, but sometimes the mom can be so capable of taking care of the kids that whatever dad does is "wrong." On occasion, I can be accused of this, I know many of my friends would admit to this, too. So sometimes the dad just doesn't help because he can't get it right, so why bother?[/quote]
