Hope you don't mind, I've never been to my other kids PRs before....
I went out to do a little shopping after being stuck at home for days (I'll explain that later)
I told him he needs to listen & not ask for everything, and most of all not to act like my friends daughter Paige. (Who is VERY bossy, and selfish)
So, Paige kept running off and doing her own thing, her mom isn't really strict on her either. She's say "Paige come here" then be distracted for 10 mins before saying it again. My kids KNOW they're not allowed to venture off by themselves, or they'll be grounded from going out shopping for a week.
Paige kept saying "Come with me Ryan!" and Ryan would reply simply - "No Paige, its dangerous to not be close to my mom so she can keep an eye on me. I'm staying with my mom"
So, that right there, earned him a pair of sandles, 2 pairs of pants, a pair of shorts and a toy. I'm VERY proud of the fact that my kids 90% of the time listen when we're out, and if they want something and we say no they are fine and just say something like "Can you buy it for my birthday?" <3
