The title is a bit tongue in cheek, as you will see, but I put it in the culture forum because our child-rearing practices do change and differ according to 'culture' or 'cultural norms'.
DD has been trained from toddlerhood not to drop litter. She's now eleven so there are NO acceptable excuses for doing so. She took a drink carton outside yesterday. I reminded her, as usual, to put it in the bin when she'd finished. Her pal had a packet of sweets. This morning, on going up the garden to empty the compost bucket, what do I find on the ground near the swing but discarded juice carton and sweet packet .
Tell me what you would do to get the message into her brain so that she NEVER forgets.
