[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not an older teen, but my 13yr old is responsible this summer for doing laundry and sorting it and placing the baskets on our bed. DH and I fold and put away [/quote]

Same. I have a boy and I want to make sure he is like his dad: not useless at home. Some of my friends and their husbands and sons...wow. [/quote]

I do it because we are a 2 income home and neither DH nor I have the time or energy to do everything. It's all hands on deck over here.[/quote]

This is fine, but look around at statistics and people you actually know. Most couples aren't splitting chores, even in a 2 income home (of which I am a part of). Women take on a disproportionate amount of housework. It is super important to me that my son not leave my house a giant man baby. He cooks, does laundry, cleans bathrooms, and he sees his dad taking on the same chores. We all take care of the household on a rotating basis, because we are part of the household.[/quote]
