If you have a high electric bill, then you need to cut some electricity down so you can save more money. You do not need to have everything on at once because that is your problem right there. All you have done is waste it for nothing. Kids do this a lot because they forget, don't care, or they think they have to have it on. When you have a trailer, you need to check the heater because that can make your electric bill very high, but it depends on how they put it in there. If you have a window air conditioner you need to watch how long you have it on. That alone can make your electric bill go right through the roof. It takes more electricity to run it, so only have it on for a little bit everyday.
If you run a lot of things at once, such as your television, radio, and lights, it can make your meter go crazy. You are wasting electricity. You need to watch what you are doing so your bill won't be
so outrageous, and you won't drop your jaw when you get it every month. Teach your kids to be more wise with their electronics and to only have one or two things on at once so they can be responsible. When you leave a room, turn off your lights and anything else that is on. Don't fall asleep with your TV on. When you are watching TV turn off your lights. Don't have too many devices plugged into your sockets at a time and if you have lamps, don't turn them on all at once.
People really can't afford it because of the prices going up, or they may not get paid very much. Sometimes it can't be helped because of how many people you have living in your home but everyone in the household should try to help each other out as much as possible.
Setting up some rules is a start. When you leave your house turn everything off. All lights in every single room should be turned off. The only things you will obviously need to leave on are your refrigerator, hot water heater, and your air conditioner if the weather is hot. When it is dark outside, I know you have to have your lights on but only have them on in the room that you are in.
