JJ's no help, he's a "good egg".
Unfortunately taking stuff away will probably hurt more than help, if it's not having any effect. If it was actually working, that would be a different story. Perhaps some sort of deal to reward good things instead? With all the shit taken away, it's easy.
I really know dick about parenting, though. I'm 23. All I know is, if you've got a clean slate to work with, raise a dork. My parents had relatively no trouble with me. Nothing major, anyway.
