[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here....
I appreciate the opinions and agree about keeping room maintained but I also think that the AP realistically would rather have the money directly or in perks than to have her room and bathroom cleaned.  I also kind of feel like the luxury of a housekeeper is earned after years of scrubbing your own toilet :). And I have never in my life had my own bathroom that I didn’t have to share with anyone but if I had....seems like cleaning it won’t be that gross.

I will give her the option of having her room cleaned every other week or giving her the cash early next year for taxes (and ask her if I can check her room once per month).

Thanks again![/quote]

Wait, so the housekeeper only does common areas and your bedroom/bathroom and your kids do their own?  Right?  Because they don’t deserve the housekeeper cleaning for them, they haven’t had “years of scrubbing [their] own toilet.”

So!  Either you think that AP isn’t a part of the family and can be the only one to clean her own space.  Or you are putting her and kids on the same level, and all are cleaning personal rooms.  Which is it?[/quote]

AP iis expected to be a member of the household and needs to cook and clean up like the other adults. But when it comes to privileges like a cleaning service, she’s just an employee.  :-) [/quote]
