[quote=Anonymous]They need to be dressed with teeth brushed before they can have breakfast. You can use the time that they are brushing and dressing to get breakfast on the table for everyone. Everyone needs to be at the door at 8:25 (or whenever) every morning. Sharp. Give a 5 minute, 3 minute, 1 minute warning. They will get in the car in whatever state they are in sharply at 8:25. If that means they didn't go to the bathroom, they will have to go at school. If someone's shoes aren't on, throw the shoes in the car and they can put them on in the car or at the bus stop or once they get to school. Don't be afraid to step in sometimes too. Your kids shouldn't expect you to find their shoes for them every day, but if you're in a hurry and the kids aren't focusing or are sluggish, it's okay to step in. [/quote]
