[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 16375, member: 393"] Repetition . . . cause & effect. I will not get into any argument with kt or wm about blame. It's their choice, therefore their consequence. Saying that, it's been a matter of teaching them to stop & think. A matter of showing the tweedles the "equation" of 1 plus 2 equals 3. I started out giving the tweedles 2 choices & letting them know the consequence ahead of time. If you do your homework you will be able to play at recess; if you choose not to do your homework you lose recess. That mindset has lessened the blame game. It's given tweedle dee & dum some power in their lives while making them stop & think. It's a slow painful process. Be prepared to continue the blame game; however point out the choices made & that you weren't a part of the process. Good luck - this isn't easy. [/QUOTE]
