[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it's broken due to carelessness (not an accident), it is not replaced. If it's lost it is not replaced If it's left outside when it should be then it's put on the top shelf in the garage. If it's broken/lost/mistreated and it's mine then there's a consequence If it's left dirty or messy then a fun thing is postponed until it's cleaned If you give in or don't follow through then your teaching your child that being destructive is just fine [/quote] Except none of that works when the child loses their winter coat or boots - you have to replace them! I agree with the PP who said that there should be consequences beyond just not replacing items that don't need to be replaced (like toys) as well as those that have to be replaced (like uniforms, boots, coats).
