[quote=Anonymous]My 2 sons had a chore chart. I created a A list and a B list and it listed items they were responsible for the week. If #1 son had the A list, next week, he flipped to the B list. This eliminated the, “I did it last time”, “It’s not my turn,” etc. I included once a week chores, as well as daily chores. For example, if you were on kitchen duty, you were responsible for setting the table, emptying the dishwasher and helping with dinner prep. My kids never blew off their responsibilities, but I would have pulled car rides to their various activities (going to a party, friend’s house,etc.) I recently listened to a podcast (Smartless) featuring Steph Curry, the basketball player. He spoke about him missing his very first middle school B ball game because he didn’t do the dishes! He is 35 years old and still remembers this. Go Mama Curry! [/quote]
