[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid was that busy. Her job was school. Why wouldn’t you let them make time for friends? They will have time enough to contribute to their own household in college and beyond. Your household is your responsibility. Hire out as much of it as you can.[/quote] Meh, I feel like there's a happy middle between this thought process and the idea of expecting your kid to do EVERYTHING. Kind of a mutual respect thing. I respect that my HS kids are very busy between school, activities, and work. They understand that I'm busy with work and my own things. There has to be an expectation that certain responsibilities must be completed by all members of the household while still being cognizant of periods of time where relaxation or other duties matter more.
