That's the way we do it too. Nagging=nothing!! Period. Not even up for discussion any longer. But...I'm mean

I was told I was mean more than once too! Now when I tell the grandkids no they tell me I'm mean!!

I'm the EVIL step-mom...MWAHAHAHAHA!!! They thought I was mean even before I showed them

I have good kids...most days

OP It's cool that you have a cleaning lady and have things that you want. Have you ever thought of doing a few chores to earn money from your folks to get these things? I bet they'd appreciate it a lot. Chores are good things to know how to do because when you move out you may not have all the people who do these things for you now. It stinks to have to learn all of it at once!! Just asking

You may be spoiled, but you actually don't sound like a brat. You may not HAVE to do chores, but having to do and being capable of doing are totally different. You seem like a nice kid, and you don't sound lazy. How about asking dad what you can do to earn the gifts you want, and maybe he'll be impressed enough with you to GET IT ALL!!! THAT would be awesome!

Oh, and BTW GREAT GRADES!! I love it when I see kids that dedicated to their academics!!!

Hun there is ALWAYS something. Wash a car? Help do the budget...learn to write checks, help mom with something to do with the finances? Get creative...invent something to do.

It would be truly awesome to get it all!!

Gee! I musta had it all wrong. I never ever once paid my kids to get good grades. I don't think I ever made a dime when I brought home a good grade.

By the way my Mom did have a lady come in and help with the heavy duty cleaning. That is until we, her children got old enough and of a size to move furniture. After that, Mom saved the money and we cleaned the house.

By the way I guess you could have called me "The Gardener" whilst I was doing the yard work, pay rate ZERO. Then you could call me "The Maid" when I was cleaning the house, pay rate ZERO. Then you could have called me "The Driver" when I was washing the car, pay rate ZERO. So I guess I musta been a man of many coats even when I was a MINOR.

And you have no chores, no duties, poor poor child. One day you will have to wake up to a rude and hard world.

If you are already paying for all your pets and animal, how about saving some of the money and buying your own incubator.

I was glad to see some real life mathematical applications. I think we need a updated result on the percentages - - -

I'm celebrating the math, but then again, that is what I encourage students to do all day.

I can not vote until I determine if your current incubator works ?

I do reward my children for GREAT GRADES - - - as far as I am concerned that is their job right now.

I let my children have the animals they want as long as they take care of them - food, water, attention, and clean living environment.

NAGGGGGGGGING, is inappropriate - - BUT that is the parent's responsibility to stop ! ! Mine don't try it with me BECAUSE it never gets them anywhere.

GOOD LUCK and ENJOY option one or two. Maybe you need to just wait until you are really sure what you want.
