2. Since Jake keeps losing his homework, tell him he must write (no photocopying) a second copy before TV. Decide how long he will redo his homework in this way. Tell Jake and be firm. 3. Since Jessica keeps losing lunch her money, tell her you won't bring her hamburgers or shakes. From now on she must make her own lunch. No rescuing. Be firm.
