No they don't

Though I have always told me don't give up anything that will make them miserable

I have told mine try to do one extra nice thing a day. speak to someone who is on their own at school etc. they are liking this approach

I would like to give up work but there's no chance in that (went to bed last night at 8pm, im sooooooo knackered) so its going to be .....chocolate

Although, because I'm maxed out with work, chocolate is my best friend so it might not last long

I've only just stopped giving up things for my New Years resolution

or stopped feeling bad about not giving up things anyway

[Daisy1956]

Love your idea FussyElmo much more positive.

[cathtee]

The extra half a bottle of wine that has snook in the last couple of weeks not sure how long I will manage

[little chickee]

That's a great idea. Both my children were trying to come up with something they could give up but they couldn't think of anything they could give up for so long. I will pass on your idea.
I have told mine I am either giving up cooking dinner or cleaning. Neither went down very well lol
