Second : Don't expect your children to be able to do more than they are capable of at their age, in other words set realistic standards of behavior for their age level.

Third : Be consistent; don't keep changing your mind. Once you've given your word stick to it no matter what. It's very important that you and your spouse work on this together don't give in and say yes when your spouse has already said no.
