Thanks!

middle DS isn't old enough for many classes.

We did have a chart but I think it's outdated now. I might try it again. It probably wasn't big enough or 'sparkly' enough!

gabalyn - I agree, its the structure and finding the structure that works for all of us, but did you find the srtructure hard to maintain. Because I think that's what is killing me, the hard work to maintain the structure that is questioned and argued about EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. It is driving me mental.

Today my middle one has finished eating lunch, he is supposed to go straight to relaxation after the meal. I told him to go. He argues that "that [the meal] wasn't lunch" so he doesn't have to go to relaxation. I've already done all the explaining why and all that, but he acts as if I should explain it all over againa dn its something new every day. The others do it too, that example is just fresh in my mind right now.
