A decision I made today. The child, who is 9 yet, can't seem to pick anything up or put anything in the trash, I clean her room and she can't put anything back or away, sooooooooo next Friday when I'm off and she is in school I'm ransacking her room. Everything is comming out except for necesities, the rest will be boxed up and put in the shed. When she learns to keep what she has better then she'll get some more of her things. I'm tired of her treating her things like crap. Taking one thing here and there did'nt work, the box of letter beads is still in Booger's jeans drawer, she never even missed it. I'm sure she'll notice her room is empty. She'll have her bed and clothes and a few other things but it will be very sparse. It will also be good to sort it box by box when it comes back in cause she has to much stuff anyway. I don't know how else to teach her to be a bit neater, I mean I know kids can be slobs but......you have'nt seen her room. Unless anyone else has a better idea cause I'll take suggestions.
