Hey we got a family contract!!
Mind you it's one with a difference, I had to sign to say I was going to try to stop doing what gets up my kids' noses as well, fair's fair, we are all involved in making this family run, not just the kids
I've also made sure it's very basic, I don't want to set them up to fail, so just stuff like, not swearing at me, to come in at a certain time, come in to eat on Mon, Wed & Fri's as a family, go to school every day and stay there and not to bring the police to the door - there is a reward for every day they can stick to this (££££'s)
It's worked really well, they love putting the ticks on their charts, they love counting the money up at the end of the week and I havent had the police round for, erm, ages, can't remember when the last time was, when I was last posting here frequently i think! About January time?
