[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not trying to be mean but the tone of your post is that you find these shortcomings charming. If your son can get away with doing no household labor by smiling abd going “aww shucks!” that’s infinitely easier and more appealing. Yes, you are teaching him this. If my son ever half the crap you describe, it wouldn’t be tolerated. Are you kidding me lady? You truly believe your son “can’t” load the dishwasher without breaking dishes? Here’s how that would go in my house: “Larlo, you broke three dishes, so I need you to find replacements” He would have to spend time searching and ordering them. The second time it happened he would pay for it with his own money. If he did a crap job loading the dishwasher, I would send him back to do it again. This is stuff you should have taught him YEARS ago. You’re teaching him that if he doesn’t to clean up after himself all he has to do is break a plate. [/quote] +1[/quote]
