[quote=Anonymous]Part of the problem seems to be that your kids don't see you as having authority over them as a parent. That once you pass the ask nicely and then the warning - that you then can give the look or a sharp tone that means business and they realize their fun is done. By this age, they should recognize that stage and should respect that you are their parent and that they need to do as you ask them. I think this is the bigger issue and you need to reestablish some measure of authority and respect for that authority. They need bot for the sake of safety, order, and general behavior to know when when they are crossing a line and to know that when you say something, they are expected to follow that. [/quote]
