some strict family regulations like going to bed at certain time with his light out at reasonable time and appear ing properly groomed at meal time These are very definite things he must do Instead of jswmg set some penalties SPECIFIC ISUNISHMENTS For example if he is 20 mid utes late in being in bed with his light outrequire him to sit up unamused for in minutes where you can see him no hard hearted then You can do the table or comes home late for thle or comes home late for meals Pick out few things you can do something about easily Shouting at him to hurry and talking about his being
