Wax On-Wax Off

Although this is no Karate Kid story or lessons learned in Kung Fu, I will steal some applicable language to emphasize the simplest of cognitive skills.

Don flooded his bathroom sink again and water ran down inside the cabinet and onto the floor. I cleaned up and suggested he try to remember better next time to shut off the water when he’s done. He has run us out of hot water on more than one occasion. Not to mention our water bill has increased 20%. He went back to the bathroom at noon to brush his teeth. That would be a first. He went in the bathroom for a third time, for what I don’t know, and didn’t turn the water off. So, I ask, is this a time-out situation, where I ground him from using the bathroom, or should I disable the faucets? Email me your suggestions.
