Finding your kids' currency
I have lots of pics of our weekend to post tomorrow, but I just wanted to say that I am so incredibly awesome. Jack's room was getting filthy. Beyond filthy. I've asked him repeatedly to clean it himself and he comes up with all these ridiculous reasons why cleaning is redundant, unnecessary, and interferes with his homework (as if he ever actually did homework). So! I just finished vacuuming his room and am taking ten bucks out of his allowance for a cleaning fee. Guess who's going to start cleaning his own room now?

Oh my God! WHAT A GREAT IDEA!!! My 10 yr old would totally freak if I did this. Thanks for the great idea. I'm off to clean a disaster area. Donna
ReplyDelete10 bucks?! When can you come clean my room?
ReplyDeleteI clean on a sliding scale. You'd have to give me half your monthly salary.
ReplyDeleteI live in awe of you.
