[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op - kids are 10 years old and younger. They just don’t care. I have told them to do chores and they do it for a week then quit. They don’t care if they have clean clothes or clean dishes. They don’t care if the house is a mess. I care so I clean and make food. I don’t actually like much food - I would prefer to never cook another meal for the rest of my life. [/quote] 10 and younger kids can only consistently do so much. You need to remind them. Honestly, you sound lazy, depressed or both. You and your DH brought them into the world, so you both need to parent them. Try not to be such a perfectionist about things. It’s only a season of life. Have a serious discussion with your spouse about what you need. You need to change the situation without punishing your kids.[/quote]
