Why can't my kids......

FLUSH toilets? Is there something programmed into their little boy minds that makes them incapable to flush? They do wash hands!!

Hanging towels? I do the same thing everynight. HAng up your towels.. hang them up!

What would the proper punishment be? Charge them $$? Take stuff away?
WHat are your ideas?

They are 7 & 9.

TIA Josie

9 & 11 here--it doesn't get any better.
Haven't a clue on how to change it. I seriously think that it's something genetically programmed in their little male chromosomes!

My youngest (8 yrs) never flushes. I think he wants to make sure someone else sees his "accomplishment" He always has a look of smug satisfaction whenever someone goes in to the bathroom after him and comes out gagging.

lol same thing with my 7yr old. I was beginning to think that it was just him that did that. I have to say tho that he does flush it more now then not. He used to not flush it every time.

My 13 year old doesn't either. He says it is because of the drought here in CA. So if its yellow let it mellow.

I guess I'm lucky that this isn't an issue in my house. Aiming, now that is another thing!

I can see myself charging. Maybe $0.25 every time you have to flush? Good luck!
