[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many people?  And how many family units?

[b]We have always had a "chore chart". [/b] It's been more and less involved at times, depending on who was coming.  Each family takes turns cooking dinner every night.  The chart has three spaces a day for kitchen cleaning.  One for after breakfast (9am), one for after lunch (2pm), one for after dinner (8pm).  That way one person doesn't get stuck ALWAYS cleaning the kitchen or unloading the dishwasher.  It also means that if you want to stay late on the beach one night, you aren't worried that you should be back at the house helping to cook dinner.  You know you can relax and still pull your weight.

When we have kids who are able, they get chores like "empty all the bathroom trashcans" and "check all bathrooms for toilet paper" or "kitchen helper" where they assist whoever is cooking that night.  [/quote]

WTF? I get splitting up some dinners but this sounds terrible. It's freaking vacation. If you make a mess, clean it up. Done. [/quote]
