My two have learnt the hard way Claire....our house, our rules, they break them or are rude then they suffer the consequence. DD2 was grounded for a week and had no internet time or mobile phone for going over her phone allowance...but we also sat down and showed her the breakdown of her bill and showed her how to manage it a bit better next time. If DD1 gets cheeky then she looses internet and ipod because that's where it hits her most. And we always follow through with a punishment...if we say a weeks grounding then it's a week, no matter how good they try and be in the mean time.

Hehe Jo, if it wasn't a paper one yes lol
Well after a lot of shouting and too and froing up and down stairs the bedroom has been cleaned
Ben has done his bedroom and hoovered the floor, but he hasn't cleared off his windowsill or desk, (which he will be asked to do when he gets home)
I have now told them both that if they don't start listening and stop the attitude, the plug will be taken off the xbox and wii and they will have their mobile phones taken off them, Ben has already had his internet dongle taken off him for his bedroom for his cheek and not listening.
Hopefully they won't be so fliipant in future.Boiler pot £30.92/£10000 -

Ahhh, bliss!
Have got the flat to myself, K won't be round tonight so I can veg out and watch the crap I want on TV, not the PS3 going or some DVD I don't like. Bliss bliss bliss.
Have had my key meter fitted, and I can't reach it! It's about a foot above how tall I am (near the ceiling) and it's hard for me to reach, I'll ask K when I need to top up. Put £15 on so will see how long it lasts me....** Total debt: £6950.82 ± May NSDs 1/10 **** Fat Bum Shrinking: -7/56lbs **
