[quote=Anonymous]Can someone suggest exact words to use to explain to a teen that washing dishes from a snack they made (for himself) and wiping the counters/putting away food does not warrant getting paid some sort of bonus money on top of his allowance? He doesn't seem to understand that everyone has to contribute to keeping our household in order. We are happy to pay him for "extra" things like digging up a plot for mom's herb garden, helping dad trim our shrubs, or power washing the driveway. Help us to explain the difference to him. [/quote]
