To start a swear jar…

Ok not quite a swear jar. DD8 and DS5 constantly calling each other stupid/idiot/hate you/telling each other to shut up. It’s been going on for months.

I’ve talked to them about it so many times, I’ve given on the spot consequences where I can (for example turn the TV off if they’re watching TV) but nothing has worked so far. I give alternatives (silly instead of stupid; please be quiet instead of shut up)

I’m thinking of a swear jar to lose screen time. Each coin added is 5 minutes less…or 10 minutes less.
