Okay so I'm struggling with 3 girls and a manchild. For the new year I'm making and posting a list of house rules, setting up a schedule etc.
Here's my question, what do I do when my " manchild" refuses or neglects his responsibilities after I lay out the rules and plans? I mean I feel like if he's going to act like a child then I'm going to treat him like one. But I also want to maintain peace ( especially for the girls) until I can make my own way.
Maybe I'm being petty but it's been so frustrating picking up after him every day and I can't just leave the mess, because we have animals and I'm desperately trying to keep the bugs out of the house.
Please send suggestions, help, encouragement etc.
Sincerely one stressed out, frustrated mom.
