I am really tired of my kids not picking up there things around the house. I can take it away, for MONTHS, ground them, even toss it out. They still will not put there things away, I feel like I talk to myself....
Keep in mind we have 4 kids and I am speaking about my 10 & 7 year old. My 13 year old picks up after himself. The 3 year old is pretty good about cleaning up , though she has her moments and she is only 3.
I thought that maybe this year I will reduce to 1 gift from us rather then the normal 5 or 6 for each of them. Then a few from santa I am sure will show up.
I wonder if this will help with them and picking up after themselves. I hate to sound anal but it is not just me my dh is tired of it too. anything that hits there hands when they are done that is where it stays.
Do you think if there is less under the tree from us they will get the hint? OR will it not matter one bit???
