[quote=Anonymous]I agree that you need to set the bar a little lower (not much) since they're 8 / 11. Set a deadline for what is expected (no asking). Dad's bday is next Monday. By Friday decide what you'd like to do for him and remember he just want to sleep late in the morning and relax, so decide by Friday about getting a gift, card or something cool. If they don't, they lose gaming, devices, whatever. I disagree that they're selfish or not kind. My son is so incredibly kind and that's how he's wired, but at 8-11, self absorbed in the comfort of home. They all are. [/quote]
