[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course. Is this an American thing, to not cook for your child when they're still living with you? My teens sometimes make their own meals, if they don't like what their father and I plan on cooking. Sometimes we all decide to have what they're cooking, so they make enough for everyone. But the default is that the parents cook, and more generally, provide for the family - we are paying and will pay for their colleges, for example. We are originally from western Europe and have relatives in East Asia, and everyone we know has a similar lifestyle. [/quote] I'm middle class and kids and teens do a lot more than what I read about UMC kids here. Mine have always had chores and they all take turns cooking (less during the school year). We don't have cleaning people. My teens mow the lawn in addition to regular chores.[/quote]
