[QUOTE="DazedandConfused, post: 297026, member: 831"] A valid question. With Daughter, I knew her "currency". No cell, no ipod, no computer,or seeing friends. She cared about losing those things and knew I would make it happen. You make a good point, though, some difficult children cannot be made. If that were my situation, I just would never pay, or make any effort, to have them involved in sports activities unless they paid and made arrangments to attend themselves. For me, it's getting them to do chores. What ends up happening is that it is less effort for me to do it myself than to fight with them to do them and then it being a less than stellar effort.:knockedout: [/QUOTE]
