Hey sis! How are you?Are you relaxing or out enjoying life!! In case you’re in like me and have some kiddos that need to clean up, have I got a tip for you! Really, it’s not a tip per se. It’s something I do that is just as simple as meaning what you say.
At my house (literally as I type), after talking and reminding my boys to clean, it’s delivery time. The item to be delivered is a clean room. The prize: return of electronics. Haha! Feel free to utilize this state of the art tip: Confiscate the stuff they hold dear and that you pay for. Clean is not something boys naturally want to be. I don’t know why or how this changes. It just does. They used to love to be tidy. Now, I have to pull out the big guns. Or should I say take away the prized toys?
I laugh, but I’m real serious. Kids need parents to be parents. Responsibility is a good thing. I will not withhold learning and discipline from my boys. I pray you do the same for yours. When they’re done, we’ll have movie night. If they don’t ever finish, well I guess they can remember what it was like to text their friends and play video games. Lol! Absolutely serious.
Parenting is hard. I know sis.
Do It Anyway!
