[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids get toys very rarely.  Our house is DEFINITELY not cluttered. There are no toys out in the living room unless they're actively being played with.

If the kids do not respond when they're watching a screen then the screen goes off and is taken away for the rest of that day and the next day.  The kids must say please, thank you, excuse me, etc.  They absolutely have chores

You seem to be spoiling your kids. They don't ACTUALLY need that many toys. [/quote]

These were my thoughts when reading this post too.
And something about the tone reminded me of a different thread about a year or two ago, where the mom was having trouble getting her son out the door to daycare each morning.   She would go in his room and make his stuffed animals dance to try and get him awake and then the son would take 15 minutes to decide what to eat for breakfast, etc.  For some reason I really get the vibe this is the same OP.

Anyway, I would chill on the toys.   I find people that describe their own home as "cluttered" really have a hoarding problem and are trying to downplay it. [/quote]
