Tonight I told the boys they needed to be in bed at 10PM. I asked three times what time 10PM.
At 10:15PM no one was in bed. I asked what time I had told them to go to bed. One didn't know and the other didn't think I was talking about tonight.
Really?
From now on I will be setting an alarm...when the alarm goes off you have 10 minutes to be in bed. Those minutes are reserved for washing your face, brushing your teeth, using the restroom and taking your meds. NOTHING ELSE.
Want a snack? Should have thought about that earlier. Need to get your stuff together? You'll have to get up earlier and do it in the morning. Forgotten homework? Again...in the morning.
