Every once in a while it is OK for a kiddo to FAIL,FORGET when first faced with responsibility.They don’t learn unless some of that responsibility is transferred to them as they are growing up.All parents know the “I forgot.I didn’t feel well.”But they could play video games or chat on the phone!Setting up achievable goals and expectations are what more parents need to be doing…IN MY opinion.

I believe in setting my kids up for success and helping them establish healthy routines. So I run through the "checklist" with them every morning. Did you take your meds? Do you have your gym clothes? Chrome book? School ID?

Children aren’t able to fix their mistakes if they forget as easily. A 13 yr old can’t come back home if she forgets something. So the reminders is the way for them to practice remembering and not put the responsibility on others.

I work from home, my kids have a visual get ready checklist and they have to bring it to me when done to get their electronics before school. I definitely go over it with them and check their backpacks before we leave tho.

I agree with both. Depending on the situation and age of the child. At 7-8 no it’s my job to make sure she has everything. She needs. Now my daughter is a teenager, and she does more for her self and I’m becoming more of a reminder. Like you put it last line of defense.

If adults question themselves “DID I REMEMBER TO CUT OFF THE COFFEE POT THIS MORNING” then you can’t expect children to remember the laundry list of things they need every single morning. I personally make my kids get it all together the night before and set it by the door! That way they just have to grab it on the way out.

Everyone forgets things. The difference is adults can fix the problem. Until kids are old enough to fix the problem when the forget things (driving) I will always remind. We are an ADHD family. I want grace that hasn’t always been given to me

Shoot I still do it with my husband. Before he leaves I’m like, phone, wallet, keys, coffee in fridge, kiss just so he doesn’t forget because I need a reminder sometimes too.

What about if you have an iPhone, you can preset text messages to go out daily with their checklist.

Take the pressure off & get everything ready the night before… if something is forgotten more likely to remember without pressure the next day

Each kid had a “white board checklist weekly !” All stuff was set up on kitchen table , lunches packed/ drinks , sports equipment in car, backpacks,work schedules,ect. Now they’re doing with the grandkids for school, sport, ect

I mean the checklist is like common sense I would think for any child no matter what the age 🤣 my kids are 26, 19, 18 and I still all ask them before we leave anywhere. Do you have everything?

I'm fully in agreement with you but some parents just aren't built like us. I don't understand it but it is what it is.

that is just parenting. You start that at a young age and hopefully by adulthood they learn to run through the list themselves.

Mariah :
I do the same thing with my son. Even simple hygiene did you brush your teeth, did you put deodorant on, do you have your phone, (winter) get a jacket on. Every Sunday I’m reminded put all dirty clothes in the laundry basket. That’s EVERY week for the last 5 years because he still doesn’t remember the laundry.

Me and the kids at night before bed they would get everything together lay clothes out for next day and put back backs by door and lunches made in the fridge and I would make sure before we left to make are they grabbed their lunch. And it made the mornings so much easier.

We make checklists and we remind them to check those. Because I work until 2am, I still listen though and make sure certain things are done that are super important like meds.
