[quote=Anonymous]Simple solution: Get your kids to contribute to running their own household. Why in the world are you not already teaching them to clean their own rooms and take on part of the communal cleaning on a weekly basis? They should also be taking turns preparing dinners for the family and packing lunches for everyone. My kid has been doing his own laundry since he was in 8th grade and he also is in charge of the family towels. And yes, your husband will need to do more. But really, you shouldn't expect it to be 50/50 if you're getting a puff job that has limited and set hours and he's doing a stressful high level job that requires a lot of mental energy and working at all hours. And some things won't be as perfect as you'd like. Welcome to the real world where not every shelf is dusted all the time and the bags of stuff to donate to Goodwill don't always get dropped off right away. [/quote]
