[quote=Anonymous]I have three young elementary school kids I need to mobilize each morning. I try to be organized, eg., picking out clothes the night before, making lunches beforehand, packing backpacks, refilling water bottles, etc., all in advance. But I can't seem to get my kids to follow an entire morning routine without incident, which brings out the demons in me and makes me yell each morning. For example, I'll be cleaning up the breakfast and send the kids to get dressed, only to find them in PJs watching iPad videos; or I'll tell my youngest to use the bathroom, and she'll instead run into the other room laughing and hide, or I'll tell my oldest to put on her shoes, but instead she'll run upstairs to search for a favorite necklace. Examples like this happen throughout the morning. So, how do other people get through the morning without yelling? The yelling's not good for them or me...[/quote]
