In the words of my illustrious mother.....
"your problem starts and finishes with one thing - the name NATHAN!"
LOL! Sorry - I couldn't help it! The reply was screaming at me from the inside!
PS - if you didn't guess, I have a brother called Nathan! LOL!

lol acbryett.
I ended up doing a supernanny chart - with football(soccer) as the theme, and (touch wood) it seems to be working. He gets to move up a man which is equivalent to a dollar when he does his jobs with out us having to remind him constantly. and it moves down a man if we have to. There is a bonus at the top too - which can be equivalent to money, or a special treat. I think because he is such a visual kid it works.
thanks everyone for your suggestions. I think part of my problem is that he reminds me soooo much of his father - my X and that colours my judgement. When his father moved in with me, he was incapable of doing anything because his mother had done EVERYTHING for him. Its my aim for ALL my children to be self sufficient independent individuals when they leave home - not mumma's boys!
