[quote=Anonymous]Wake your youngest up earlier. Write out a checklist. Have time slots for each item in the checklist, make it a game. They get a sticker or M&M every time they check something off the list on time. Be realistic about what you have to help with — and don’t procrastinate hoping that a kid that has never brushed their hair will suddenly, randomly achieve this skill on a Tuesday morning. Work on skills on the weekend. If this younger kid is older than 7 get an ADHD screening. Stop yelling. Be cheerful. Make up songs for each step. Make up a fun song as you give them each sticker, etc. Positivity rules the morning![/quote]
