[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I came here, hoping I could reduce the question down to a bare minimum of *minutes* working on *anything.* I don’t care if it’s making the bed and picking up clothes. Or unloading dishes with or without me. I was hoping for some minimum that I can require with positive or negative consequences. Reading the responses, I’m not ungrateful, but it’s making me feel overwhelmed somehow.[/quote] Minutes is too vague. Tasks with a clear beginning and end will work better. When you do X, we can do Y. No response to arguing or ignoring. Just wait. It’s not easy OP, but it’s totally worth it to get kids helping. Reduces so much stress and teaches them so many great lessons. [/quote]
