[QUOTE="mandcc96, post: 148000, member: 5075"] Thanks, those are great suggestions! Right now the toughest part is getting my younger daughter out of bed! While my difficult child is in the bathroom most of the morning, my youngest stays in until 10 mins. before the bus comes. She rushes out of bed, whips a brush through her hair and teeth, throws on clothes and out the door she goes (she eats b-fast at school). I have to laugh since her father does the same thing every morning (and has for the last 12 years LOL). But for my oldest, she could spend 20 mins. straightening her hair (I never thought I'd see the day!) and then chew out her sister (who's been sitting by the door for the last 10 mins. and suddenly realizes her books are upstairs) for making her have to rush to the bus. I do want them to leave on a positive note and have a good routine in place. My oldest will be heading off to high school this fall and my middle daughter will be on her own getting the bus everyday so it will be important for them to be able to have that routine. I will talk with them this week over the chart and with the pointers you've suggested hopefully make one that will work. Thanks again. -Chastity [/QUOTE]
