[quote=Anonymous]Start telling him to do things himself. Say you know how to do it but you totally understand if he prefers to do it himself. Like with driving. When he gives suggestions tell him he's distracting you, but next time you'd be happy to let him drive. Then the next time, get in the passenger seat and let him drive. If he asks why, say he seemed to want to drive last time and you needed a break. With the groceries, same thing. Tell him you'd love help with meal planning and grocery shopping. Ask how he'll be contributing to that task. The playing vs cleaning thing is different imo. That sounds like you doing the same thing back to him. You want something done your way, but you don't want to do it. So either stop cleaning and play with the kid, or discuss splitting chores more evenly so it's not "your job" to do all the tidying up. You can't demand he become a neat freak. [/quote]
