[quote=Anonymous]My kids get up in the morning and go to school. They are only responsible for doing very well in school and EC activities. I will facilitate stuff for them (buying supplies, gear, bringing food, travelling, registering) but I do not manage the day to day academics. They come back quite late. Weekends are spent in studies, more activities, family events or hanging out with friends, if they are not travelling. I make their beds, do their laundry, cook food, clean/straighten the house - every single day. We also have a full social calendar and usually weekends are devoted to that. We are ok with our kids not doing chores because when will they do the chores? :lol: They are out of the house at 6:30 am and back home at 5:30pm and then have several hours of homework and activities. So should I not make their beds or clean up or have their meals ready? Sorry, but this is not helping the kids to succeed, is it? We believe in being supportive and loving parents to our fantastic kids. I have no need to be a gaslighter. YMMV. [/quote]
