Simple solution...show him where you want the car parts leading him by the hands and eyes. How? Car parts in garage. Start serving "food" in garage. His confusion asking. "Why are we eating in the garage?' "Oh...Aren't cars and car parts supposed to be in garages?"
Hubby laughing admitting to guys at work wearing dirty clothes. 'Yeah..now my wife asks me to carry my dirty clothes hamper down stairs. I jump and do it so I won't forget." Big baby boys. "I wish our wives did that instead of nagging."
We were taught ACTIONS have consequences. In-action has consequences also...Seeing "inaction" consequences provides eye opening "choices" .
Either I remove car parts from kitchen or eyes see garage eating "future."
