Great, great, great idea about the money and vouchers - it's a hard thing to get kids to value, well done to you all.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13593818335616365129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1388354411859160772.post-40086962136656430812011-07-22T12:49:05.650+10:002011-07-22T12:49:05.650+10:00oh Miss Prudence, how proud you must be of your ch...oh Miss Prudence, how proud you must be of your children. I absolutely LOVE this post of yours, I love how your children dealt with their rations for the holidays, I love how you gave them those choices, I love how they were so mature about the last incident. Our holidays were also very different this time around for the same reasons. Our craft box did not come out over the holidays as per usual, we did not do the 'homey' things as in the past quite as much. There is certainly a 'shift' in our little family once again as we enter the next stage of growing up. I have much to look forward to, however, would so love to slow down the clock just sos that I can savour even more the wonderful time I have with my darlings. <br />That paper bag idea is coming to our place next holidays, thanks so much for the inspiration.'Joyce'https://www.blogger.com/profile/16965444361021567520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1388354411859160772.post-83096848006997092202011-07-21T22:18:57.116+10:002011-07-21T22:18:57.116+10:00I remember how difficult it seemed at first when I...I remember how difficult it seemed at first when I realised my kids were all growing up...I was used to having little kids around but I soon saw that big kids were just as much fun ... just in a different way... now I can ask them to do the shopping !<br /><br />Love the brown paper bag idea!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08477626894762442078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1388354411859160772.post-34319102994805815642011-07-19T22:10:53.877+10:002011-07-19T22:10:53.877+10:00Sounds like your children are maturing well.

I really, really like your idea of the bag of goodies for the holidays and will store it away to share with friends when the time is ripe although it is a little too late with my big kids (23, 20 and 17 and working). I enjoyed reading about their different reactions. It just shows how each child is an individual and must be treated so.

Maturity -- what's that all about? ;D
...oh.wow.<br />Maturity -- what's <b>that</b> all about? ;D<br /><br />So blessed to have "good" kids, the kind that realize what poor public behavior is...<br /><br />But why, oh why did you not share your kid/cash/holiday strategy earlier? My boys have only 2 weeks of summer break left -- not near long enough to learn fiscal responsibility. Thanks for the great idea!Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659475503140848717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1388354411859160772.post-69829186019024625742011-07-18T21:04:01.050+10:002011-07-18T21:04:01.050+10:00Your children sound so cool, and so do you Miss Pr...Your children sound so cool, and so do you Miss Prudence;) I love your idea on holidays I think it would be a hit with my two. It's funny how they all deal with the same things isn't it, I find it interesting watching them and seeing their decision making. Love the way they dealt with the neighbours too, wow a dvd why did they worry about something so minor. xoCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11314373295390794669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1388354411859160772.post-87871570654592697382011-07-17T08:24:58.649+10:002011-07-17T08:24:58.649+10:00Sounds like u had a wonderful time!
