I Have to Remind Them Five Times

They know how to do it. Somehow, you’re still the one who has to remember it. Pick one thing you’re tired of saying on repeat, and I’ll show you how to set up a reminder your kid can actually use. Think a note by the sink that says, “Fill your water bottle after dinner.” Try it a few times and see if you get to say it a little less.

What to Say

One short cue instead of the full speech, so the reminder does the talking.

What to Try

Put a reminder right where the job happens, like a note by the sink.

If It Goes Sideways

If the note gets ignored, adjust where it lives or what it says.
