[quote=Anonymous]OP, I have to agree with some of the other posters that perhaps you seemed like you were waiting to judge them.  I have older kids and they had to set the table and do dishes for years so thye know how to do it.  This year clean up had everyone in the kitchen, mybhusband washed, the kids dried and I put most of the food away.  Someone swept the floor.  But really there was not much for more than the two of us to do.  But my kids stayed in the kitchen, played Christmas music sang and danced.  They were their to help but mostly my husband and I had it under control.  I was not keeping score.

There have been years when they have done all the cleaning.   They know how to help but sometimes it is probably just too many hands in the kitchen.

Not sure why you did not just ask your nieces to set the table.  If they said they did not know how, take the five minutes to show them.  I believe you that they were not helpful.  I just think you were too into judging them and not interested in having a good time.[/quote]
