[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did no chores because in my country having maids is normal for middle class families. So adulthood in the US came as a big unpleasant shock. I took years, for some reason, to come up with a routine that worked well for me. I am adamant on my child doing chores on the weekend (not counting everyday responsibilities for keeping their things wherw they belong). I pay him, there is no allowance. This just one way to teach him about time and money management. [/quote] Why didn’t you hire a maid like you had growing up? Not being facetious but was it a cultural change for you? Or simply that your home country had much cheaper help?[/quote]
