[QUOTE="cubsgirl, post: 490360, member: 11211"] I tend to hold things in and not confront the kids about their "helping" uh hmm, or lack thereof. I had an epic meltdown this past summer over something silly and inane. It was really about all the stuff I held in. Most of mine was about dishes, trash and laundry too. I'm trying to work on dealing with issues as they arise, confront them head-on and ask the kids for more help when I need it. They complain but usually (crossing my fingers for continued luck) they rise to the occasion. Maybe the difficult child's could repair the wall together since they inflicted the damage or contributed to it??? Like Step said -- if you anyone has the formula for follow-through I will take a copy. [/QUOTE]
