If you recall, we had no milk in the house. One thing I am learning is that food is a good way to soften up a teenager. He was all gratefulness and 'I love yous' this morning.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08338688515732965297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19703534.post-33497207528939681152008-11-18T19:17:00.000+09:002008-11-18T19:17:00.000+09:00The punishment was more for the sassing and disres...The punishment was more for the sassing and disrespect that came during the laundry request. I took away his ipod for 24 hours. I also said that if his laundry wasn't folded (he only has to fold his own) by this time next day that I would take his clean clothing into custody for a while. (too harsh?). I also gave him a deadline on having a clean room. So we'll see... He absolutely refused to do any of that last night at 7::30 saying he had to go to bed.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08338688515732965297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19703534.post-9918435060564008342008-11-18T14:43:00.000+09:002008-11-18T14:43:00.000+09:00I'm thinking my bluggy day today is cake walk!

Not a lot of sickness-faking (yet), but plenty of arguing and chore refusal. And that's from the soon-to-be 7 year old. Can't wait till she's a tween. BTW, what's a good punishment for a kid who refuses to fold her laundry?Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09822410201369209660noreply@blogger.com
