Ah, I could do with out DS15 hormones.....DD16 is a walk in the park. Guilty as charged I get DSs clothes out every morning, he is a bear to deal with "any time of the day"......he is getting better through if he does not like something I picked out he goes and gets something different, so he does know that there is a closet in the house with his clothes in it. Now DH he is on his own I do not pick his clothes out for him. DD is doing her own laundry now, except on really busy weeks when I know she is stressed or I am running behind on washing I will was and dry for her.

DD is doing her own laundry now, except on really busy weeks when I know she is stressed or I am running behind on washing I will was and dry for her. The night before thing works well for us. I hear lots of US mums have their kids do their own laundry. Now I struggle with that one. Firstly, it takes time to dry our washing, so they couldn't get it all done in a weekend. Secondly, I'm a demon colour sorter, and won't wash part or half loads, so either they'd have to mix colours and risk their clothes, or do smaller loads... Then of course there's the fact that on school days they leave home at 7.25 and get home at 6.15 with homework, tea, shower, bags to pack etc to fit in before bedtime at 8.00 / 8.30, so during the week they honestly do not have time. They do help sort loads, get washing in and so on, though I'm too fussy to let them hang it out, must try harder on that one!

Oh, and hormonally ds has been no problem at all thus far. Dd is finding it tough and poor thing, she's not a wet and tearful child at all, but finds herself crying at the drop of a hat now

DD has only bee doing her own clothes for about 6 months now, she would not bring he clothes down for me to wash so I just stopped gathering her clothes weekly to wash. So if she did not have them done by Sat morning then it was luck of the draw if they when they got washed during the week. DD is very independent, thankfully. Many of her friends also do their own clothes.
DS just makes dumb decisions.....I can not decided if he makes them because it is an experience he wants to try or because his peers ask him to do it, and so he does. Right now the big problem we fight is him trying tobacco products. Yesterday I caught him not only smoking but he also had dip in his mouth at the same time. Now who does that!!!! He is a 15 year old terror.
Hopefully I will survive his teenage years.

I have a policy of only washing what's in the laundry baskets, so I will no longer pick up clothes from the floor to wash. Cheebs are both getting good at it, dh is shortly going to run out of t-shirts and sweaters for work...
I don't know what dip is, is it chewing tobacco or something? Don't know if they have that here. That is a nightmare scenario. Both cheebs are very anti smoking, but that's so far. Dd is very strong willed so I'm not worried about her and peer pressure for now, I'm more worried about the potential for an eating disorder with her, and I watch her carefully as I can see her possibly ending up being a self harmer. Mentioned it to my mum this week and she said that she'd wondered the same too... I always though ds was a sheep and likely to be easily influenced, but so far it's not happened either. But, like I said, that's so far...
