I feel my WW is becoming a cake eater, partially because my boundaries may not be strong enough. What is the best way to deal with this? Creat caos when the boundaries are broken as Mortarman suggested. Won't this risk LB'ing?

I don't think creating general chaos is the way to go about it, but there should always be consequences when boundaries are broken or stepped on. Those consequences should be stated when the boundaries are set up.
If you do this, this will be the result.
Just make sure you mean what you say and that you can back up the stated consequence with actions. Simply creating a random consequence when a boundary is broken probably isn't the best idea.
