Someone please tell my daughters that:
1) I am supposed to tell them how to do things correctly.
2) I am supposed to remind them to be responsible for themselves.
3) I am supposed to tell them to do a better job when i KNOW they can.
Please also tell them I do this because I AM A GOOD MOM not mean. That I am NOT supposed to be their friend but their guide, leader & mother.
Oh one more thing could you please let them know that being part of a family means certain innate responsibilities towards the care and keeping of the family and home this is expressed in chores. This is not optional this is real life and when they grow up they will also have to clean their house, their kitchen, their bathroom (including the inside of the toilet) their own laundry, their car, their living room...well you get the idea.
Any volunteers to do my communicating?
Oh wait one more thing gratitude goes a long way.
PS this is my SHORT LIST
START AT THIS AGE FOLKS TRUST ME
