My 7 years old child just adores to spend time with her dad, but he comes home late and tired, has his dinner and goes to his computer and spends the next couple of hours there. It means he spends with us during the week just 30 minutes/1hr a day. Some days he reads our daughter night time stories.
But one day my daughter came up with an unusual idea: she wrote a contract where she stated:
Dad, mum, we have to do at least 2 working days Family days, which means NO COMPUTER and MOBILE PHONES. These days will be Tuesday and Thursday. Me after the school and you after the work should be together. Please sign here....
So did we.
However she forgot the important point. What happens if we won't hold our promise - what would be the penalty?
Her dad is trying to follow that routine but not always, so my little princess is getting disappointed and upset.
She can't think of what to do when he breaks the contract...
