[quote=Anonymous]I've made picking up after yourself a way of life in my house from the time my kids were very young. It's just something we do. I agree with the PP who said to start small and build habits. It only takes a few seconds to put a toy, blanket or cup away. It's much easier to teach children to put an item away after they are done using it than to direct them to pick up a whole room at the end of the day. It's frustrating on both ends. Instill better habits so it doesn't come to that every day. And no, I'm not OCD that everything must be put away all of the time, but we don't leave cups, blankets, games etc all over the living room when we go to bed.[/quote]
