[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Come up with a new strategy. The watch doesn't work for your son, so find something that does. I found devices with alarms work best for one of mine. Also, I've found that for one, it doesn't work to say "be home by ___". Rather, I need to say "leave your friend's house no later than ______". I'm now working with him to figure out when he needs to leave when I want him home by a certain time. [b]Also, we're working on a new strategy for leaving the pool on time because I don't want him taking devices to the pool. [/b] It doesn't seem fair to punish if you haven't taught him how to do it.[/quote] I normally wear an inexpensive waterproof sport watch to the pool because I don't like to bring my phone. That would work for a kid too, with an alarm reminder. http://www.target.com/p/marathon-by-timex-strap-digital-sports-watch-blue/-/A-15035586#prodSlot=medium_1_11&term=sport+watch[/quote]
