[quote=Anonymous]What is she into?

Consequences we use for my 6 and 9 yo DDs (because usually they are getting into trouble together) - loss of screen time (they get very little) or treats. Length of time depends on severity of the crime, but usually it’s 2-4 days.

Consequences for just my 6 yo: she loses her jewelry/tiara/princess dresses that she insists are part of her regular wardrobe. So it’ll be like no tiara for three days. Or whatever.

We do not take away bedtime stories, family time, or special items (like prized stuffed animals) - anything that is a comfort item is sacred.

Also… off topic, but perhaps relevant. One of the things that drives me most nuts about my kids - and causes me to lose patience with them - is just *stuff* *everywhere.* So I took a big plastic bin and now anything out of place goes in the bin. They have to empty it every night. Whatever is left in the bin at bedtime is mine for a week. (I’ve very cute tiara collection going.) Keeps me from going insane and having to give punishments.
