Help Needed

Miscellaneous Musing by Judy @ 1:45 pm PDT
tags: ,

I’m looking for creative and innovative ways to get a teenaged boy out of bed earlier in the morning than he would like. I’m especially interested in methods that will not result in the slamming of doors or raised voices (on either his part or mine).

Suggestions gratefully accepted!
