Bribery, who says bribery is dead?
Oh - that's chivalry they're talking about.
10:30AM
Me: Katie, it's time to go take a shower and get dressed.
Katie: No Mommy!
Me: C'mon.
Katie: No Mommy!
Me: If you get in the shower, we can go to Target after.
Katie: Really?
Me: Really.
See how easy that was?

The power of Target starts so young!
ooh... in my experience those Target runs get expensive, FAST! :)
Hmmm...in ten years time it is more likely to be 'Pleeeeease come out of the bathroom...'and you certainly won't be able to use Target as a bribe.
Oh Target can do wonders for a childs mood. :)
LOL!! I could try that today too to get the kids to stop fighting, but it's ONLY day 1 of summer vacay. I'm in trouble!
I love it! There's nothing wrong with a little bribery and/or trickery every now & again.
Target is the NUMBER ONE bribe with my three year old. hahaha
There is no parenting without a certain amount of bribery.
Dude bribery is FAR FROM DEAD
Bribery is used all the time in our house. Couldn't live without it!
However, Target would never work for my son. He hates shopping. I'd have to up the ante to get him motivated.
I puffy heart Target!
LOL! That's awesome :) Good thing she's cool with Target. Better than Bloomingdale's ;)
What's wrong with bribery? It's how we roll around here!
It isn't bribery if you don't give them the reward until after they've done what you're asking of them. If it is bubblegum because they're screaming in the aisles of Target and won't shut up until you give in, that's bribery. What you're talking about is a reward.
It sounds better that way... ;)
