[quote=Anonymous]My DH will do this at night and I find it incredibly disrespectful as the person who wakes up early to prep coffee, breakfast, and packed food prep for the day (including mine, or it wouldn’t affect me). I feel really strongly that the counters should be clear in the morning, the sink should be empty, and the dishwasher run. If someone is up eating at midnight and has dishes on the counter they can’t put away because the dishwasher is full, they can empty the clean dishwasher. I will die on that hill. DH will say “why can’t you just do it in the morning, it’s two dishes, it’s not that big of a deal.” It obviously is if my DH and your teens are unwilling to do it! I vote that you just don’t do anything for a day every time they don’t finish the kitchen by x time at night. And then it’s their responsibility to do it all the next day. Car keys and phones go away the day after that, assuming they’re under 18.[/quote]
