[quote=Anonymous]Sorry OP, but you do need to toughen up. We’ve raised 5 kids now and some more challenging than others. We never allowed the younger ones unsupervised outside (unless it was our fenced in backyard). Your children need to ask before they can go outside. Your 5 year old is not a babysitter for your 3 year old. I wanted our main floor to be clear of toys, but it never happened. Nor should it. You may want to adjust that and see if it helps. I also agree that your kids do know better. Obviously young children are going to make mistakes, but they are also opportunities to learn. You sound like a loving and engaged mom, but I’d suggest more consistent boundaries and consequences. Good luck![/quote]
