[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 26058, member: 1991"] Why not get her to clean the basement, next time you find food scraps there? It's not so much punishment as consequences. If I'm eating in a part of the house where we don't normally allow food and I spill it, I have to clean it up myself for the same reasons you gave. So why should I be punished if it's not me doing it, but one of my kids? My kid might say, "Don't worry, I'll be careful," but accidents and spills do happen. The person causing the mess should clean up the mess. And the kid with peanut butter in bed - easy child did that once. Only it wasn't peanut butter she was covered in - REALLY yuck! Marg [/QUOTE]
