[QUOTE="Mamaof5, post: 352748"] Absolutely going to do all of what you pointed out. Yes it was from a pdf of a Juvie center system (card system) and I do find it too much (I knew it was) I have not even told Big B about it yet. I want his input because it is a consensual living household. I'll probably drop the shower part - it was a section I added because it was an easy target to meet for him and I wanted something he already did well on there to reinforce that he does it well and for him to know that he can get those points easily enough. Kind of like when a college student takes a patsy course to up his grades (hey I did it in college lol) and GPA...bad comparison I know. I'll probably drop it to two or three major behaviors to work on and change it monthly with his input, ask him what he wants to work on for goals. Thank you all for input, I needed it. Robin - not debating you just curious as to why so much contempt for natural parenting? Besides being old fashioned of course which seems to be the major part of why you disagree with it what else irks you about it?
