No one has the rule book and we all gotta make how we can. Funny how a peaceful place becomes chaos. As a parent if we are out alone on a "date" even other kids don't bother us cause we don't have to deal with it....we just smile:) Hey whatever it takes.

Yes? Well then, nothing to feel bad about. And as a bonus, they're still getting along and they've already been paid. Really, I don't see anything wrong with how you handled it.

It is the same as saying "If you are good while I shop, you can get a candy bar" which I know was used by parents, and I have used from time to time as well. It gives the kids something to look forward to and you get peace! Don't feel bad, we all do it from time to time. Nothing wrong with some incentive.
