[quote=Anonymous]Teens are able to help you do housework. Buy each kid their own rubber gloves and assign and teach them how to do tasks. You will be surprised at how much there is to teach with simply spraying and wiping a mirror! We crank up whole house music and each person does a different cleaning task. The kids find it very rewarding that they cleaned the baseboards or mopped a floor! It shines, it smells clean, and it’s something noticeable that they did with their own hands. You are teaching them for a lifetime. I’m shocked to see how little kids learn on what chemicals are appropriate for granite, versus faucets, versus toilet bowl, shower door track, tiled walls, etc. Few know how to prune a bush or cut some grass. Etc. [/quote]
