We have been encountering some behavior problems with Hannah lately. Seems that she is very much like other 5-year-olds, but I still want to deal with it head on so that we hopefully don't have to deal with it so much later on.
With that in mind, I am enacting a new rule effective Monday - Friday. No TV before 11:00. This will hopefully make us more family oriented, encouraging conversation, uninterrupted school time, and increased creativity. In turn, I am also trying not to do any major house cleaning until after 11:00 so that the kids get more of my undivided attention.
Will this new rule stick? Will it make a difference? Statistics tell us that it takes 21 days to make a new habit. I'll give a report in three weeks!
