Good Days

Vern has been having quite a few good days. No big troubles in school. No disasters on the school bus.  I have not succeeded in getting him to do his jobs without being nagged about it. Ideas???

Tonight he wanted on Webkinz soooo bad. He was not allowed until his jobs and school work were done. That left all of 20 minutes before bedtime. Then we had a temper tantrum because the computer wouldn't work right. HOW do I make him understand if he does his chores he would have more play time? Nothing phases that boy.

He gets to attend the reading party tomorrow, this will be the 2nd one I believe. He is pretty excited about that.

Otherwise Vern and the rest of us are just stuck in the wintertime rut. Looking forward to spring!

  1. Amen! on the return to Spring. We've had snow for far too long.

    Regarding what to do: Just be consistent. The concept of action/consequence seems to come slowly to us boys. Keep pointing out the consequences, both good and bad, and he should *eventually* get it. Keep up the good work.
