[quote=Anonymous]What are your goals? Him getting out the door or him doing all of these things? Lunches can be made at night. Clothes can be picked out at night. Showers can happen at night. Before he can play with Legos he should have to do his "must do" tasks like these;plus homework. Mornings he just needs to get up, get dressed and brush teeth. Arrange to have a sitter lined up one morning. If he doesn't get up on his own walk out the door with the ones who are ready. Sitter stays until he is ready. Takes him to school late. He gets no note to "excuse" the tardy. Let him suffer the consequences. Same thing with his grades. The consequence of bad grades or tardies is loss of privileges. He gets punishment at school and home. He has to start owning this. [/quote]
