Our Chore System
March 30, 2006 on 7:03 pm | In Main |We have created a wall chart for Sean and Ethan that shows how they are doing with their daily chores. We give them a star when they have done the chore or item for the day.
We have had some interesting side effects with this system. On the first night we did this, Ethan was crying non-stop for over a half hour just before bedtime. I thought Sean was doing something, but all Sean did was to say that Ethan was not getting any stars for the day. Ethan was so into getting a star that this really upset him. I had to tell Ethan that Sean was not responsible for the stars to fix the situation.
We also have had ups and downs with the system. Yesterday was a down day, with Sean not getting any stars. Today was an up day, with both Sean and Ethan getting stars for each item.
It will be interesting to see how this continues to work.
