Big hugs to you , Mama. I am not so sure that I have any advice...I am only working on one dd now. However, I did like Grandmommy's advice. Have those kids work for their privledges. I really like the idea of working to get their stuff back. It sounds like they have way to much 'stuff' That is a problem in and of itself.
The pre teens are living under your roof...and need to be contributing members of the family.
Structure and boundaries. They are testing you!
For the toddler...check out the gentle guidance forum. There are great references in there.
More hugs to you...I am glad that you posted. I am sure some sage mama's will give some more strategies for you.
