[quote=Anonymous]I like a tidy house and was tired of cleaning up after my kids. Recently I started a new policy. Any mess on the floor or kitchen table left when they go to bed, I put it in a bin and it goes away for a while. I told them the new plan, an reminded them at night to give them time to clean up. I also helped them at first. My youngest would actually deliberately leave stuff on the ground he didn't care about so I would clean it up for him! So it's not fool proof. Long-running projects are not included in this because I don't want to stifle things like working on a difficult jigsaw puzzle or whatever. I also do a bit of tidying throughout the weekend days but don't mind doing a few minutes here and there. It's a balance![/quote]
