[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You say you're doing the cooking and cleaning. Time for them to learn these chores themself perhaps? This age is perfect for wanting increased independence and responsibility. Sounds like you wrapped them in cotton wool. Why not try teaching them some practicalities?[/quote] They make their own lunches and do their own laundry. They can prepare basic food on their own. They clean, when I have the energy to make them do it. What you might be missing here is that I have barely enough energy to do minimal things and no interest in spending more energy on dealing with pushback or doing a lot of teaching. Yeah yeah I know. [/quote] Can you see your family doctor to screen for depression? I'm sorry you're having a hard time. [/quote]
