Why is it that kids can collect tons of stuff and hoard it in their rooms? Then when you ask them to toss it because it is actually garbage? They say that it is the most special thing that they have and they can’t bear to get rid of it.
So two of my boys have this issue soooo bad. They can’t get the idea in their little heads that when they have their stuff put away, and the garbage thrown away that mom will be happier and they will be able to find those things that they need when they actually need them. Every month I go in their rooms and do a deep clean just to clear out the trash, and those two silly boys always have at least 1/2 of a garbage bag full. What am I going to do with them. We have even started labeling drawers and shelves so that they know where everything goes. Maybe it will just come with age and more repitition. I just hate them thinking that I’m nagging them all the time. But can’t a mom ask her kids to put their dirty clothes in the hamper and just even throw their toys in ANY box?
Oh well, RANT OVER
