Mean Mommy

While getting the bean bags and other stuff off the floor Monday so that the lady could steam clean my carpets, I discovered that my son had lied to me. He told me that he had put away the toys on his bed. I had found some dirty clothes on his floor and when I went to put them in his laundry basket, I found those same toys in his basket. So, when he got home from school, I made him pick his punishment. Add more time to the 'no video games', lose the toys, or have no friends over for a while. There are very few kids in our neighborhood to come over to play, so I think in a way he chose the "easy" punishment. He'll have no friends over. But for at least half the time he has no friends, he'll still have no video games either.
