[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never heard a eulogy for a mother that said "She was the best mom because she kept the place spic and span." [/quote] I’m not the OP, but for me it isn’t about being the “best mom.” It’s about the anxiety that clutter and mess causes. I grew up with a mom who left crap everywhere. I could never find anything, never sit down. A messy house reminds me of that and I HATE it. It’s like someone else said up thread about having too much noise. OP, I would have even fewer toys. Your kids will adjust and it will be good for their creativity.[/quote] Sounds like maybe you should work on fixing that instead of trying to fix your children to accommodate your problem. [/quote] why do americans think it's a burden to be neat? it seems very unique to you people. M toddler will help clean up with some help and encouragement. We sing a song and do it together.
