[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your older son is 12. He’s d enough for you to have a conversation about party expectations. I would both dangle a reward and a punishment if he doesn’t behave. If he says anything negative about younger brother during the party he willose screentime. If he does anything mean or fails to include his brother he will be cleaning all the bathrooms for the next month, etc. If he’s inclusive of his brother and makes the party nice for him he gets a new video game or new clothes or whatever else he’s into. Then you never put your boys in this situation again![/quote] I wouldn’t be bribing my 12 year old to convince him to behave. I think this is a time to use consequences, not rewards. [/quote]
