Family Economy

What advice would you have when out on field trips and day outings, or while traveling when we have behavioral issues? Is there an alternative set of consequences you offer when you’re in a setting where there aren’t chores and major maintenances to be done?

I find waiting to do these things later then feels overwhelming to both me and the child when they’ve built up a mountain of consequences to be done when the situation has passed, verses having the consequence be in the moment. At that point, I feel like letting it go, which I understand isn’t being consistent. So then when out I feel like not following TSG because I’m overwhelmed by having multiple children with multiple consequences to handle hours later. We have a busy schedule and sometimes aren’t home much to make up these consequences. Is there an alternative in these situations?
