[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 541073, member: 1722"] This is a lesson we started pushing with Duckie last year because she seemed to feel very entitled. That didn't work for me. I look at it as issues of self discipline, determination and self respect. I also throw a healthy dose of guilt in there, in that Duckie is fortunate enough to be growing up in a good school district where she is afforded a free and appropriate public education by the people of this community. To give it less than her best is a disservice to herself and our community. A little high-handed, I know, but I can't risk her falling into bad habits when she's already a difficult child, from which she may not be able to recover. [/QUOTE]
