[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]we don't make them do enough chores and have a cleaning service, so I worry they'll never learn basic home management (not HOW, but how to do it routinely and consistently).[/quote] It's funny to see so many people claiming they ruined their kids by not making them make enough chores, because my SIL saw my kids taking their own plates to the kitchen, and told me that I am ruining my kids by being lazy and treating them like servants, and that kids should know that their only priorities are schools and extracurriculars and "having a childhood". [/quote] PP, keep it up! My 2yo is already an excellent little helper. I was one of the kids who was (truly) ruined by my parents not making me do chores. I am now a married adult who struggles to do basic home maintenance. I am learning, but I feel way behind on life skills and frankly embarrassed.[/quote]
