For Club PALS this session we are learning about Responsibility. One of the ways we are teaching the kids to show responsibility is to do what is expected before they are asked to do it. We just completed the seventh of this eight week course, and I told the kids in my house this is the last week to ‘practice’ the trait before we release them as experts!
This morning my husband almost knocked over my daughter’s left over cereal bowl. He asked whose bowl he almost spilled. She claimed it sheepishly and said that she didn’t put it away. He replied that he KNEW she didn’t put it away, and that he shouldn’t have to tell her to put it away. She said, ‘I know, I’m sorry, Daddy. I have been very irresponsible.’
