I just read the comments. Sorry.

I don't know why, but I always forget about checking to see if I have any comments. Lexi I'm sorry I didn't respond sooner. If you still want to talk you can email me at bnicole19951@aol.com. I check it daily. I swear. My grounding systems came from a court ordered child psychologist. We were having major issues with my middle child during my divorce and the court ordered it so her Dad would have to attend as well to help fix the problems. Brooke had a rough couple of years, but once we started that system it has gotten better. He said for us to punish for the day daily. Like if she gets a conduct mark then take away her privileges for that day only. Ex. If she gets a mark she doesn't get to watch TV in her room or the living room, she doesn't get dessert, and she has to go to bed at bedtime with no TV. She knows if she's good the next day she will get everything back the next day. If she has a really bad week and I can't get a handle on it then she has a grounded weekend. I have had to do that rarely. If it is really bad offense then she gets a spanking along with the grounding. Ex. If she hits or does something hurtful to someone else. I tried behavioral charts, but she'll go put a check by things she hasn't done and I had trouble judging her behavior. If anyone else has any other ideas. Let me know. I am always open for suggestions.
