[quote=Anonymous]As a guy, I'll say that likely the only way he'll understand how much or how little he is actually helping is for him to do the whole job regularly, say once/week. So, periodically you should suggest "Tonight, you should clean the kitchen so I can help the kids finish their homework." While he does the whole cleanup, you do your other task (it doesn't have to be homework). The first few times, you'll have to finish, so when he's close to finishing what he thinks is finished, you can come in and wipe down the counters or the table, or whatever last task or two needs to be done and tell him you're happy he cleaned. Talk to him, while you finish those last tasks, so he can see what you're doing that he missed. Really, guys have to experience these types of things to have any chance of truly understanding how big a job is. Otherwise, you'll continue to have this disconnect between his perception and the reality.[/quote]
