[quote=Anonymous]Assign her chores so she is helping with the household stuff. It could be cleaning her room, folding her clothes, putting her clothes away (stuff that you don’t have to see so won’t drive you crazy if they are not done the right way). She is old enough to vacuum. I am not an only parent but I do have an only child. I love play dates. At least one on the weekend. I don’t care if his friends come over for 3-5 hours because they entertain themselves and I can do what I need to do or relax a bit. I like the idea of specific 1 on 1 time doing what she wants for a set time and then she needs to play by herself. If she asks for more time then she can help you with chores. [/quote]
