[quote=Anonymous]I cannot imagine picking up a 25 year old's dirty dishes. I'm trying to get my 6 year old to consistently clear his own! Even my 11 year old's friends mostly pick up their own when they visit, as do adult guests. And if they were leaving dirty dishes in a bedroom I'd have absolutely no problem asking them to bring them to the kitchen so we can get them into the dishwasher at night. Same for laundry - it is kind of weird and unfair if a 17 year old girl is expected to do her own, and her 25 year old brother doesn't. I get that OP can't order him around, but he's also a sibling. The car thing is tougher. I do think explaining that you may need to leave in the middle of the night and taking extra time to move cars is an imposition that could make you late is the way to go.
