[QUOTE="JP0212, post: 1479313, member: 17421"] I should have been more detailed in the time process. I started by offering her rewards. I told her once I would give her $20 if she could get a 100% on the blank map. She didn't care. Then I started emphasizing how important it was to my wife and I. She didn't care. Then I took the allowance and so on. I tried to encourage and offered rewards, when that didn't work I moved on to something else. We have even spent time trying to help her learn them, but she has to try herself as well. Someone won't always be there to hold her hand. Once they are learned I will be sure to reward her for it too. I am very big on encouragement and such, as that was somethng I never got. I cherish every moment with these children, but I will not look past any wrong doings because the time is limited. I am not implying that that is what YOU do, but that did seem to be the general attitude of this thread. [/QUOTE]
