[quote=Anonymous]Your problem is spelled BOY. Ever notice when people post about issues like these, it is almost always about their son or DH? My son is 8 yrs old and his newest chore is to do his laundry. I will give him one reminder usually on Saturday morning to do it. That's it. That would get him started but then he would "forget" to complete it. He had been asking for a watch so I got his one- with a timer. I showed him how to set it for an hour so it goes off and he goes back downstairs to do his laundry. If your son's alarm doesn't get him up and out of bed, make him pay you for the ride to school b/c he missed the bus. Make him checklists for everyday. If he checks off that he did something and he actually didn't do it, take away his __________ for however long you think is needed.[/quote]
