[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 579501, member: 15810"] easy child tends to be that way, but with him it's mostly that he gets distracted by other things. The television. His toys. I'll give him instructions ("Go upstairs, get dressed, and brush your teeth.") and I'll say to him, " Now what are you supposed to be doing?" And it's a PITA, but I have to keep on top of him, making sure he didn't turn his television on, or that he's not listening to music on his IPod. I tell him once he's done he can do all of those things. difficult child gets mad because easy child's bedtime is 8:00, but because he takes forever getting ready for bed I make him stop playing at 7:25 or 7:30 to start getting ready for bed. difficult child has asked me why I do that a hundred times and I tell him because easy child takes a while to get himself ready. It annoys him because they were having fun and I make them stop. [/QUOTE]
