[quote=Anonymous]I wish my mom had handed off more stuff to us. I think it was overwhelming for her with three kids and she sometimes felt taken for granted and taken advantage of. For her sake, I wish I had been more help, for sure. I have one son, and I refuse to let him be man baby, so he has "chores." Garbage, empty and load the dishwasher, clean his own bathroom and room. Before we got a lawn service, he would occasionally do the lawn. I think of chores less as character building, and more of reminding him that he is part of a family and a household and we all contribute to these things--as well as our jobs.[/quote]
