[quote=Anonymous]When mine were in ES, the rule was 1 hour of screentime on school days and they could choose when. And they had some chores and a bit of homework, including at least 30 min of reading. How they scheduled it was up to them. When we struggled with them doing what was needed to get out in the mornings I made cards showing each task and that worked well. So we also did them for afterschool. The visual/tactile reminders cut down on my nagging. I think your problem is it sounds like you are being very controlling about when they do things so they don't have space to make choices.[/quote]
