Wow how can you curb it?

The little guys really need to learn to do things themselves however it really reaches a point where it is seriously annoying. A general example would be watching them put in bubble bath into the bath – end result almost half the bottle ends in the bath before you can catch the bottle again, or maybe using shampoo – similar function and result. There are two more classics – food – pouring drinks, we invest in paper towels as we go through a ton, the 2nd is not finishing their food, they want more and more when dishing up and tantrums fly when they do not get enough however every time they generally never finish what is dished up for them. Going to restaurants are another classic example – order food they do not want to share – so get their own plates and trues nuts they do not finish their food, doggies bags here we come. It really is frustrating and one of the things I am seriously working on, you see one realy do not want to be a hoverer over your kids however you do want to curb the wastage that accurs. Maybe it is my upbringing having parents that had very little during the war, either way I fully conform to it and find wastage unacceptable – so will keep working on it definitely over the xmas period.
