[quote=Anonymous]As long as my kids eat their dinners (including some veg/fruit), then i don't really care what they eat for snacks. I limit the time of the snack b/c it can be too close to dinner. Buy some of the individual chip bags and tell her: enjoy!-- have one with her homework everyday and let it go. As for the homework, don't get all emotionally distraught and angry about it. Tell her you don't like the lie, but you understand she wanted to go outside. From now on, she shows you the homework when she's done (and/or you let her go outside before doing homework). Check it, but don't hover while she's doing it. She can come to you for help. It subtly gives the message that you believe she has the ability to do her own homework. If she doesn't know how to do somethign and doesn't understand your explanation or doesn't ask for help, then she should write on her paper "I don't know how to do this." Her teacher should be aware that she doesn't understand it.[/quote]
