For a long time now I have wanted to gain (control) peace and harmony in our home. There is this AMAZING WOMAN I know who will remain nameless (but you know who you are!!). She has taught me many things. She is such a great example to me and is really a wonderful mother. I aspire to be like her.
In her home she had posted "THE FAMILY RULES", with her knowledge I have stolen them from her and have made them ours. Here are the LaPray Family Rules.
My children were so excited watching me make this poster. As I wrote down each rule we went over them one by one. Everyone is on board!!! I'm excited! In fact this afternoon someone was misbehaving and I'll I had to say was "remember we love each other"... immediately after I said it I heard---I'm sorry---. ahhh the peace that structure brings!!!

That's awesome! Good example... give us an update in a couple of weeks.
Are you talking about Super Nanny? Hey I love the rules poster! The rules are great!
I love this idea...even if it wasn't yours! Glad it's already working.
I have family rules posted at my house too (although we only have 7). Maybe it's been there to long cause the effects are starting to wear off. I think I'll have to mix it up a bit! Good luck!
Hey, cute lady! Don't forget the consequences. 1 minute for ever year of age they are. Especially don't forget the very important dialogue. After serving time, with rules posted in front of them, they need to answer the following questions:
#1 What rule did you break?
#2 How did you break it?
#3 Why do we have these rules? (Answer must be VERBATIM: "Because you love me and want me to be happy"
You answer VERBATIM: "Yes (then hug them), because I love you and want you to be happy".
