[QUOTE="nvts, post: 404021, member: 3814"] Yes! Absolutely! And personally? The way my elbows and forearms feel right now, I think you guys are NUTS! Snow, snow, snow! Dishes? Nooooo biggee - snow removal? Holy crow, I would have bought the maps myself! :faint::rofl: Seriously, I really do think it's a good idea to instill the "earning" mentality. I would just let him know that there are going to be guidelines in place. $3.00? No big deal...when he wants to buy a car and he's only short $3,000 - waaaaay different story. Chores are chores...doing the extras that he's capable of doing is worthy of him learning how to perform tasks. With a diagnosis of ODD, I think it was phenominal that he worked out a sensible solution rather than digging his heels in and running amok. To answer your question? in my humble opinion - Great job! Beth PS: By the way, make sure that you discuss how proud you are that he came up with the solution - it'll reinforce the lesson! me [/QUOTE]
