[quote=Anonymous]Uh OP you’re a spineless jellyfish. Also, you posted because you wanted attention and advice, but “6 pages?? I’m not reading that!” Don’t you have any experience with setting limits? Allow me to help: At restaurant: “Boys, the dollar amount for your entree is $15.” Multiple boxes of cookies: Label each one with a name. You eat the cookies with your name on it. Complaining about cereal for breakfast: “You are smart guys and can use your phones to search for a breakfast place nearby, and use your own money.” No thanks for meals, activities, etc: “Hey Larlo, don’t you ever thank your parents when they do things for you? That’s how we do things in our family. Please feel free to plan and arrange for the remaining four vacation days on your own. We’ll be happy to drive you back home at the end, though!” I’m a teacher. Parents who don’t know how to set and enforce limits are the cause of about 80% of any problems I have with their little darlings. [/quote]
