[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make your life simpler. What can you give uo? ARe you making elaborate meals? If so stop? Use one day to batch prep a lot of meals that just need warming up. You don't say how old your kids are but if they are 7 or older give them a little more responsibility as far as cleaning up after themselves it's a good skill for them to have anyway. Stop trying to control what she does on her 2 days. The kids will live with lunchables. Get a housekeeper.[/quote] Agree with all of this, except starting even younger on chore expectations. I don’t think you posted your kid’ ages, but at 4 mine are expected to put their own stuff away, keep their room clean, move all laundry (including mine) to laundry room, put away folded clothes, bring dishes to sink, feed dog. Older kids do more. Before my kids go to bed, the house is clean so that evening is my time.[/quote]
