Did you scrub the toilets?


Nope. I just told you what we did.

So you make your kids clean the bathrooms at home or naw

You should be working on your DD’s aversion at home. That’s your job, not her teacher’s.


You don’t think middle schoolers are capable of cleaning a bathroom? But I’m sure your little one is in all AP classes and headed to Harvard? 🤣🤣🤣



I don’t call kids “little one.”

I know middle schoolers are capable of cleaning bathrooms because my kids cleaned the bathrooms at home when they were in middle school.

OP wants her kid’s teacher to teach her to clean a bathroom. That’s OP’s job.

Where did she say she wanted the teacher to do it? And what would be wrong with the teacher doing it?

They used to teach kids how to drive at school. They had home economics classes where kids learned the basics of cooking. But THIS is a step too far 🙄🙄🙄

No - kids shouldn't be exposed to harsh cleaning chemicals or forced to do manual labor to get a free public education.

Yes. In Japan schools are smaller and kids take turns cleaning the whole school. I don't think it needs to be bathrooms. It can be everything else,'classrooms, washing windows, sweeping floors, cafeteria etc. it would bring a sense of ownership and pride. But our schools are too large.
