[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I put the extra money towards travel and savings.

I’m baffled by people who complain about laundry. You put it in and walk away. What’s so hard?

Cleaners would be nice but I’d rather have that money for a nicer vacation. [/quote]

Do you actually do the laundry in your house? Putting it in is one of many steps. Sorting, washing, drying, folding, putting away. Let me guess, your wife does all the laundry? [/quote]

DP. Laundry is one of the funny things people have strong opinions about here. I think prewashing sorting is the hard part. [b]We[/b] watch TV and fold. But I don’t get the complaints. (Wife here).[/quote]

You have help. It takes me an entire day to do the laundry for my family of five. [/quote]

I also have a family of five. Each person does their own. I think it’s important as a life skill to think about cleaning up after yourself and your own hygiene. Yes, even the kids — starting at age 5 the kindergartener helps do his own laundry and is proud of it! The older kids do it with minimal supervision.

+1. Kids were doing their own laundry other than turning on the machines from age 5; learned how to turn them on around 9-10. I only do my own and the sheets. Start early and it’s no big deal; if you’re doing elementary and older kids’ laundry just show them once and let them know it’s their job now![/quote]
