[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That’s weird! Teach your kids to clean up after themselves. They aren’t animals![/quote] A 4-year-old can put in a good effort at wiping a table, but the effort is far from perfect. I wouldn't really trust the 7-year-old is very effective at moping, either. [/quote] My 4 year old is a slob when she eats. Like a darn toddler still. But she wipes the table after every meals and spot cleans spills on the floor just fine. In another 3 years I couldn't imagine she'd be unable to mop... Work more on teaching your kids how to clean. If it's half done, nicely point out what parts are still messy and tell them to keep cleaning until it's all clean. Help them if they're super resistant so it doesn't turn into a battle, then rinse and repeat. And up your cleaning service to twice a month![/quote]
