I have had the most trouble with trying to have proper IF and THEN kinda of scenarios and proper consequences for these almost very things. I know because of the inconsistency on my husband and I's part... my childrens behavior and responses.. especially to helping about the home are less than stellar.. We have children.. especially our son who dont want to take responsibility in their behavior or lack of work ethic.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing this.. it has given me just the amount of thought into what I can do to bring back order and respect to the homeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2947580832429520795.post-37159752560173667312010-06-07T12:19:26.402-05:002010-06-07T12:19:26.402-05:00I think most of these are great rules.

I really think you are setting your kids up for food issues when they live on their own. I also think family meal time is extremely important and should never be taken away as punishment. Of course, your house-your rules. just my 2 cents. <br /><br />TracieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2947580832429520795.post-6054715028622173592009-11-08T09:04:29.834-06:002009-11-08T09:04:29.834-06:00I have been following your blog for ahwile.

Yes, I understand that your kids are in no danger of starving and I do understand that you withheld the food due to their not feeding the animals in the correct way. But with that being said, animals do not withhold food from their young for punishment and are we not more then animals? I can see withholding a treat or a sweet, but a meal or a samller meal? Do your children have to always ask before they can have a snack? I just have a problem with food being part of punishment.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12780643306647082008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2947580832429520795.post-32900580921676921372009-11-07T11:48:19.342-06:002009-11-07T11:48:19.342-06:00We have something like this that we teach at our h...We have something like this that we teach at our home. It's not on paper, just something we talk about. It's called "Choices=Consequences". Good behavior results in a happy spirit and pleasant things like time to play. Naughty behavior results in unpleasant things.And, really, isn't that what life is all about? Doing the right and being rewarded eternally!Plainlady's Ponderingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09526327124561246570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2947580832429520795.post-74506128392094283882009-11-06T17:46:56.270-06:002009-11-06T17:46:56.270-06:00i love your blog! i have a little something for y...i love your blog! i have a little something for you http://agodlyhomemaker.blogspot.com/2009/11/im-honored.htmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2947580832429520795.post-71611934154622460422009-11-06T14:25:11.677-06:002009-11-06T14:25:11.677-06:00I love your chart.
