[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 625382, member: 1967"] I have to second what childofmine said. Rules and contracts never worked with my difficult child. You can stipulate things like keeping his room clean but what happens when he doesn't? Throw him out for a messy room? We all know it is all part of the bigger picture that our difficult children refusal to follow rules but when push comes to shove, can you really throw him out for something like that? My difficult child would promise every time that it would be different and that she would follow our rules and there would be a short honeymoon and then she would slip right back into her old bad habits.
