I have spent 2 days cleaning my 5 and 8 year old girls rooms. my 8 year old is better at picking up than the 5 year old. The 5 year old is so stubborn that she would rather sit in her room for an hour or 2 and cry than pick up the socks that she took off in the living room and just left on the floor. I have given tons of things, (toys,clothes and shoes) to the resent disaster victims in our area. she doesn't care when i take toys and get rid of them to prove to her that i will "throw" them away.we don't buy most of them they get the of toys from there grand parents for x-mas, birthdays etc. can anyone help me to get through to my 5 year old. i have tried ,time out, spanking, yelling, no tv, going to bed early, no night time snack before bed, and nothing has helped. I work a full time job and i hate to have to come home and not be able to enjoy my girls it seems like all i get done is cleaning up after my husband, kids, and pets. Can someone please help me!
