[QUOTE="greenrene, post: 594916, member: 9177"] Oh goodness, ksm... The haircut scenario has been played out here too. difficult child had been growing out her bangs, then one day she decided to cut them herself, and it was a REALLY bad job, I mean, so short that to have them evened out would have looked even worse, so we figured out a way to disguise it until it grew out long enough to re-do her bangs. I will say one thing though, my personal policy is that I don't "rescue" for school stuff unless it was somehow my fault that something got left behind- if something is forgotten, they have to deal with it. Part of it is that school is across town and gas is $$$ (and I already burn through a LOT of it), but it's also because I want them to have to take responsibility for things like that. I have an "after school" and a "before bed" chore list which includes getting stuff ready for the next day - all homework, backpacks, lunch boxes, uniforms, belts, socks, shoes, etc. [/QUOTE]
