-------------- Boundaries are not set to define another person. Boundaries are set to define what goes on with you.
You also must set a definable consequence.
(consequence) so true. Without them all of the rules in the world are useless. One of the main things the grouphome employees brought up everytime someone talked about what the resident boys "should do" got changed to how do we get them to do it, and if they do not do it, what is the consequence. Try positive reinforcement first. If that does not work, then go to consequences. Carrot and stick works best most of the time, (if appropriate).
Corri, Can you go to Finland and get in Mr.FF's face and straighten him out? TV "Wife Swap" type of thing. Boy, that was a good post.
