Death of the slipper socks

December 4, 2011

Gavin got a brand new pair of slipper socks from Grandma,  about a week ago.  These are *really* thick socks.

We noticed tonight that he has already destroyed them.  There are at least 2 holes in each sock.

I have no idea what to do anymore.  We also found a stash of his *missing* clothes tonight. I don't know how to deal with this.  Lizze and I informed him today that he will be buying his next batch of socks.

Hopefully,  but doubtfully (I think I just made that word up),  he will realize that he needs to take better care of his things.  I don't know of a better way than to make him pay for his next batch of socks.  Maybe that will help to instill a sense of responsibility,  when he knows it will come out of his own pocket.

I'm not sure what else to do at this point. We had funeral services, for a brand new pair of pants and several pairs of socks this week.  Tonight's discovery just frustrates me all that much more.

Ideas??????????  I'm very open to your thoughts,  experiences and ideas here.  :-)
