Lose What You Like Chart
'''Jo: I introduced the Lose What You Like Chart to show Marissa and Lizzie that every time they misbehaved, they would have one of their privileges revoked. And it wasn't long before Marissa tested Mom.'''

Alicia: "Marissa. No talking on your cell phone."

Marissa: "It's 7:30pm. I can talk to my friends, can't I?"

Alicia: "No. Not during dinner time."

Marissa: "Whatever (bleep)."

Jo: (to Alicia) "What I just seen right there, is downright rude and that needs to change. So, go over to Marissa and take the phone off her. If she refuses, take away her hair straightener as well."

Alicia: "Okay."

[Alicia goes over to Marissa]

Alicia: "Hand me the cell phone now, Marissa. If you don't, I'm taking the hair straightener as well."

Jo: "What came next was absolutely shocking."

Marissa: "Go (bleep) yourself, you worthless hag!"

[Marissa gives her mother the finger and storms out of the room]

Jo: "Poor Alicia was so upset that I actually had to step in and do the discipline for her."

Jo: "Marissa, give me the cell phone."

Marissa: "Go and kill yourself."

Jo: "Hey, don't talk to me that way."

Marissa: "My cell phone, my friends. Got a problem with it? Then leave!"

Jo: "Marissa's mouth just got worse and worse."

[Jo takes Marissa's cell phone away]

Marissa: "I'll just go on Facebook then!"
