[quote=Anonymous]I was like you, OP, with my first AP. But then I learned to let the little things go. It's hard to have someone live in your house that does things differently, but you really need to pick your battles!! That said, make sure you do what you want her to do and are not slacking off. She will watch you and if you don't always do it, neither will she. Leave notes up. My last AP would never remember to clean the lint trap on the dryer...which is important and can cause a big problem! So I taped a note ON the dryer that said 'clean lint trap every time'. Know what? It worked! Remember, these girls are young and some are used to their mom cleaning up after them or nagging them. They aren't perfect. I wouldn't give up that fast...but learn to let it go.[/quote]
