[QUOTE="DDD, post: 524932, member: 35"] I have found that the biggest problem is often (don't laugh, please) the parents. Like the others "schedule" is the paramount factor and as a result it means parents have to follow a schedule too. One of my adult daughters thinks it's "too boring" to preplan meals, eat dinner at the same time, etc. Therefore her out of control daughter frequently does not get home from "running errands" until what would ordinarily be bedtime. That just doesn't work. Funny thing is that my gd manages just fine to help set the table, wash her hands, eat dinner, help clean up etc. etc. with no hassle at my house and at the houses of friends. I admit my household was borning. on the other hand even super hyperkinetic GFGmom by the age of four stayed in her bedroom for the night. It took me about that long to figure out how to change the tempo of the house, lower the noise level, reduce the light level etc. Fingers crossed you will be able to come up with a plan that works best for your family.
