That way if they want to get on they have to ask. 2. They also have to earn tech time. I admit I'm not always good at this, especially when I'm on a conference call and someone comes in screaming, but usually they have to do some tasks to earn minutes to play. Some of our tasks are putting certain things away (like the shoe pile), emptying the dishwasher, feeding the animals, etc. Then we set a timer for how long they've earned. Once the timer rings they're done. Not sure if that helps. Love you.

I agree that it's really shocking the crap that is so easily available to those who aren't even looking for it.<br /><br />Good luck!Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17632617157661276068noreply@blogger.com
