[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I can’t imagine[/b] doing laundry for my kids over the age of 10. They are completely capable and should be doing their own. If you’re doing it for them consistently then you are babying them. [/quote] That's a real lack of imagination. Imagine...other households running differently than yours! Here's one of MANY examples. My teen Ds gets home from high school basketball practice at 9:45. His practice uniform needs to be washed and dried and in his backpack by 7:15 am. Should he stay up late doing laundry? Not the best use of his time. He needs to eat, shower and go to bed. [/quote] Simple. Tell Ds to get a second practice uniform.[/quote] You know nothing. The practice uniforms are issued by the public HS. [b]Each kid gets one jersey and one pair of shorts[/b], and they must be washed every night, worn to every practice and brought to every game. You don't "just go get" another one.[/quote] You get another if you send your child to practice with a note explaining how the laundromat lost the uniform and you need another - Yes. I’ll pay if necessary. This makes it easier for the child to manage their own laundry, and teaches problem solving skills. This is especially necessary for young boys who should never be allowed to let women do their chores. He’s washing his basketball uniform, period. [/quote]
