[quote=Anonymous]I was expected to do chores growing up and it wouldn't occur to me not to expect my kids to help with age-appropriate chores. My parents viewed learning how to do housework as a basic life skill for me and my siblings (of both genders) and I view it the same way. We give our kids some leeway on the state of their rooms, but expect them to help tidy up common areas, sweep, clear table, put away laundry, and do dishes. Sometimes they aren't thrilled to pitch in, but it's a non-negotiable expectation in our family.[/quote]
