How do I get my kids to look after their things?

Learn to value your own things

If your kids don't seem to place any value on their toys, books, clothes etc., this may be a reflection on your own actions. If you leave stuff laying around all over the place, you can't realistically expect your children to be neat and tidy. If you mistreat things, slam doors, or are generally rough, expect them to be the same. Often, children are the best mirror of your own activities.
