Cooper had been bringing home his school papers with his named spelled correctly but with a capital "C" lowercase "oope" and capital "R". After many attempts of bringing this to his attention and reminding him to use a lowercase "r", and having his teacher make him change it (when she'd catch the mistake) I told him that any paper he brings home that he uses a capital "R" instead on a lowercase one he'd need to write his name 10 times! Told him this yesterday. Today both papers he brought home had the correct "r" being used. Finding the correct way to handle a situation and what works for each child isn't something that comes in a parenting manual it's just trial and error... Hoping we found the solution.
