[quote=Anonymous]I have been packing everyone's lunches for many years. Mine, DH, grown up kids, even guests who stay with us and want to visit DC. The thing is that I pack really wonderful lunches. Packing meals in a lunch box means that you are very limited in what you can make, so the challenge for me is to not resort to slapping a sandwich together, but rather how to transform wonderful meals in a way that it can be packed in a lunch box. No one in my home has any chores. I have never asked my kids or DH to do them. However, automatically my family has taken over certain chores. By and large, my kids have become used to living a certain way and they will replicate it themselves when they have their own home. Just like I did not lift a finger when I was young but became a very houseproud mom and wife when I got my own house. [/quote]
