#5 Unpredictable Kids
Needless to say that kids are very unpredictable. You can never guess what is going on in their head at any given point in time. Heidi got this lesson recently.
Her son lied about doing his homework and then when confronted about it, he gave her loads of attitude. She was obviously upset because of this.
#4 Money From The Youtube Videos
Heidi got so upset because of this that she decided to write a letter to her son. But she had no clue that this letter will become a sensation online.
The point is that Aaron (Heidi's son) does make some money on his YouTube videos and lately started bragging about it to her so she wanted to make sure that he doesn't feel entitled!
Keep reading ahead to see what the letter was and how exactly did all this end?
#3 The Letter
"The child is going to have a rude awakening today after the words he exchanged with me last night," she wrote on Facebook and uploaded a picture of this letter.
"Not only will he find this on the door, but his mattress stripped, and the toys and clothes that I bought confiscated." she concluded.
#2 Contract- Part 1
Well, it sort of worked. "He apologized, and asked what could he do to make things better" Heidi claimed.
When Aaron came out of his room an hour later he gave his mother more electronics that he felt he needed to earn back. This is when Heidi stitched a contract together that she wanted her son to sign. This is the first part of the contract.
#1 Contract- Part 2
"It is still a work in progress. This incident just happened last week. It has made a difference though. When I ask him to do something, he does it. Today, I was down for count sick. When he got home from school, we discussed his day, looked over homework and grades, and then he asked me to write out a list of what I needed him to do today. He did those tasks, and I allowed him a little bit of screen time."
"I keep all the electronics, and allow him to use it during the time I allocate it. If he doesn't give it back when I say time is up, he won't be able to have screen time again for a while. He can earn back some of his other items instead."
Well, the part 2 of the contract looks equally disciplined. Now this is a new method of teaching your kids a lesson!
