My dcs (7 & 12) have totally started to take the piss!
Leave their clothes on the floor, bed unmade, dishes on the table.
They're obsessed with the x box (ds2) and online gaming with friends (ds1)
So today I have pinned a laminated sheet to the fridge stating that they are allowed 1.5 hours and 2 hours per day screen time.
No screens half hour before bed.
Bed times 8 & 9.30pm
10.30pm on weekends with 3 hours screen time (weather dependant)
To get this they must:
Make their beds
Put dirty clothes in basket
Clear dishes from table
Clear school bags away
Ds2 is fine, but ds1 thinks I'm being totally unreasonable!
He can't see why he can't have 10 hours a bloody day at the weekend gaming with friends.
Tonight he went out alone for the first time to meet his friend, I asked him to be back by 8.30pm, he came back at 8.45
So he's lost screen time tomorrow and now he's refusing to do anything
Please help!
