My older two kids had been told not to go in the rubbermaid bins of toys that are in the basement. They were full of toys from the basement that were not getting cleaned up. It was mass chaos down there so I filled up bins with things that were clutter and not favorites.
Now both bins are dumped out in a basement playroom that they already completely destroyed. :mad I seriously can't even walk down there.
If I tell them to clean up, they won't. They'll play and fight and I'll get mad. If I'm down there, they still won't and I'll get frustrated. If I do it myself, then what are they learning? I'm so sick of that mess down there. I expect some chaos, it's a playroom but this is completely out of control.
What should I do?
