[quote=Anonymous]I think the most natural punishment for the iPad is for it to go away for some time until she is ready to follow your rules. As for the drinks, I think punishing her would just make her hide them better. Explain the dangers of drinking caffeinated drinks every day and show her alternatives like Diet Lemonade, Ollipop, Vitamin Water, etc. Most doctors recommend drinking 3 cups of water for every 1 cup of non-water. I am like you and don’t allow my daughters to buy sugary and caffeinated drinks at all but their dad loves coffee so if they are at their dad’s house he will buy them Starbucks if he goes to Starbucks. Another idea would be to tell her that you will buy her one sugary drink a month as long as you don’t find evidence of her buying and hiding. [/quote]
