[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 551012, member: 1233"] They don't have to note when normal things get used up. But once in a great while I have something that is just for me, generally NOT food, and those are the things that I need to be told about when they are used up and/or broken. When told they are broken I don't yell or make an ugly scene, just thank them for telling me and then i deal with it. But they still refuse to tell me and when I find a broken item put away like it was fine or the pieces hidden somewhere? I get angry. The idea that they would tell me when they used the last of something? HILARIOUS!!!:rofl: The broom in the dishes/sprinkles/whatever? I spent almost a year with positive reinforcement on that. Did NOTHING. no matter HOW I praised or rewarded. Throwing a fit? Seems to have made an impression, at least for now. I think they FINALLY understand that some of these rules are not just to be picky. I have yet to find any of this stuff that any amt of positive reinforcement helps. Creative consequences get me FAR better results. [/QUOTE]
