[quote=Anonymous]Our kids have all had chores including all of the skills needed to live on their own. Dishes, laundry, cleaning the kitchen and bathroom, how to vacuum (and when to empty the collection chamber), iron clothes. They don't have to do all of these things all of the time everyone in the house takes turns so the house runs smoothly. Our oldest just graduated from college this past weekend and mentioned that she never realized other parents didn't teach these things. The girl she shared her apartment with (didn't know her before she moved in) did not know how to do any of these things. She also did not know how to cook anything beyond warming in the microwave and toast. DD tried to teach her the basics. Teach your kids how to be adults![/quote]
