[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are not seeing the effects until they leave the house and live on their own or with another person. So you can’t say it’s working until they actually become independent. [/quote] I agree. Anyone with a messy college roommate knows the difference. There’s a big gap of waiting for mom to do it, before being proactive enough to do it yourself, or have someone freak out at you because you live like a slob. Or as my MIL will say, “John is too busy to do chores. He needs to focus on his career.” Some of you sound exactly like her. He even laughs at her ridiculousness.[b] That’s who you are raising. He gets it (now), but his two brothers still let their wives do everything[/b].[/quote] If it makes you feel any better, my DD also does not do chores. She is focusing on her career. Hopefully, she will marry one of the enlightened males being raised by good chore distributing moms here! [/quote]
