[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Damn you're taking away daycare from summer for this? That's crazy. [/quote] +1. This is not the route I’d take. You can use it as a motivator to improve behavior, but don’t use it as negative threats. [/quote] This is really dumb. You need an immediate consequence. Taking a summer activity is way too far in the future to be effective. Also, stop threatening things you don’t want to follow through on. For example if you go home early from a shopping trip, the kids spend the evening cleaning the house. One can wash dishes by hand. The other can scrub toilets. That’s an effective and immediate consequence. You walk in the door and hand them a toilet brush. [/quote]
