Did you know that you can boil down the rules of your home to 21?
Yeah.
Me neither.
I thought there was only 1...
....Do what I say.
LOL
Just kidding.
Kinda.
I was given this list at Loving your Children night at an incredible Bible study that I am a part of on Tuesday nights.
Much more about this study coming soon....cuz it's good.
Like good, good.
Anyhoo, I love this list of rules.
My kids love this list of rules.
It hangs prominently above the dining room table
visible to all
a reminder and reference for when they are disobedient
Not that my children are ever, ever disobedient.
Nope.
Nevah.
Ahem....
hold on.......
I must go recite rule #3 to myself.
There's just some great stuff on here!
We we open something we close it.
Amen.
When we take something out, we put it back.
Amen.
WHEN WE MAKE A MESS WE CLEAN IT UP.
Can I get a witness?
My current plan to use this list is when they disobey or misbehave they then walk over to the list and read aloud the rule that they have violated and then attempt to amend whatever offense they have committed.
I'm telling you...
this works wonders.
It's been working wonders the entire time we have been using it...
all
3
hours.
Hey, you gotta start somewhere! :)

Love it! I have about 3-4 rules, looks like I should add some. Mine are:
ReplyDeleteBe obedient
Control your voice and body
(Speak and act nicely towards others kind of falls under this)
Make good choices
All very generic so that when they misbehave it's generally one of these. I really like your list though, I may have to create one. Thanks for sharing!
Will you ever so kindly email this to me Madam? Thank you ever so respectively, your friend, Christina
ReplyDeleteOnly 21???
