I have just come down from my childrens bedrooms and as usual I am pissed off. I am feed up with cleaning them. They leave dvds out of cases and leave them on the floor. I have a washing load from ds2 bedroom floor ( basket outside his bedroom door). I laydown rules which are broken. I will take toys away ( they will just play with others). I pay them 10p per juob around the house so they have to earn there pocket money. I can't think of anything else now. I don't want to keep nagging them. I want them to enjoy having friends over e.ct but I won't have them over unless the bedrooms are tidy. So they never come over. When they are in there tidying up I have to be on their backs constantly.I have been in there and tidyed with them so they know what to do. Last weekend ds1 spent one whole day in his bedroom crying on and off because he wasn't alowed out until he has done it. How do you do it. I even hate going in their rooms to put washing away
