Not serious!!!

Question 1: Your DC has decided to 'decorate' the walls with your nail varnish, do you
a) praise their creativeness and take another photo for the album
b) involve them in a deep conversation about the price of nail varnish and wallpaper
c) ignore it
d) count to ten then tell them off/ put them in time out etc and make them help you clean it up

Anymore questions?
Btw I did the painting the walls with nail varnish as a child Grin

You are kidding probably 4 or 5 depending on how much it was pissing me off. I might go for providing boring snacks that they dont like ie. bread and butter/cereal.

My DS would love to eat breadsticks/ cereal. It's dinners he loves I'm offering (he's an only child so makes more sense) so thats not why he's refusing them, but more the excitement of being first few days of summer hols so he wants to do everything/ watch every DVD NOW Grin

I compromised tonight. He was watching a DVD and I knew he'd want to rush back to it so let him eat his dinner at the coffee table while it was on. He ate it all. And 2 apples, a yoghurt and cereal bar before bed.

I agree about not making meal times an issue. My mum used to force us to finish.

Mindyou we're off on holiday tomorrow so I'm sure he'll be snacking on crap lots. Grin
