The successful parents I know tell the kids what they want done and why and set a time then what the consequences will be if the kid doesn’t comply then walks out and shuts the door returning when the set time arrives to either say thank you for acting responsibly or enforcing the consequences. No nag, No argument.
Sadly, I live in Ohio where the GOP dominated legislature gerrymandered districts so that no matter what voters do the electoral votes will go to the GOP. So, except for the families of the other 3 victims, what happened 7/15 will not matter in Nov. That plus a judicial decision today means DT has already won.
God help Buckles!
