GET IN THERE AND CLEAN YOUR ROOM!
those have been the words that i have been screaming for about a month. mikey
will not clean his room. there have been weekends where he has spent the whole weekend "cleaning" it. i am at my wits end. i don't know what to do. he gets in there and if he doesn't find a hundred excuses to come out (i.e. i have to poop, i'm hungry, when's dinner, i'm thirsty, i wanna take a nap now, jeffin is making more of mess...the list goes on and on...) then he starts playing.
i feel that i shouldn't have to go in there and clean up his messes. he is 5 yrs. old now and knows better. i just bought a bunch of different size totes/organizing type of things and maybe that will help.
it prolly doesn't help that he has SO MUCH stuff. but does he care if i threaten to throw it all away? NO. does he cry when he sees me heave-hoing stuff in garbage bags? NO. is he upset when he is not allowed to do/get anything b/c his room is not clean? NO.
WHAT DO I DO?
i am hoping that some other mommy's with the same problem will stumble upon my site and give me some pointers. please! i am begging you.
