 I know that one.  My son is the same way.  Any type of behavior modification
 works temporarily, and then it has to be changed.  Jeremy gets too bored
 with the same thing.  So his chores have to bee changed to different times
 of the day after a few weeks otherwise he just won't do it.  It seems that
 it is incomprehensible to try to reason with a, "You have to wait until
 after dinner", or something to that effect.  Patience is not one of his
 virtues.
