[quote=Anonymous]If I have to clean it up it goes in the trash, or on their dinner plates because I had to clean up for them and didn't have time to cook.. But we started cleanup training when my children were toddlers so this behavior for them wasn’t the norm even though they did wander occasionally. It is difficult when Dad sets the example so you are going to have to talk with him and get some team work going. When not cleaning up became a habit for our family, we had family cleanup days. Once the cleanup of an area was accomplished we went for an outing, went out to eat or purchased a special family item. You got a lot of other good posts suggestions, maybe some of these will help. I know for me personally if I don’t organize things I am more likely not to clean up my mess. So it does appear that organizing does help. I am praying for you to be able to overcome this problem and build good habits in your children. It really is about setting the goal to build responsible citizens. You are building habits and traits for a lifetime of success. Training up a child in the way he/she should go is one of parents most challenging jobs. God bless your family.[/quote]
