Morning chores,,,
After school chores,,,
Dinner time chores,,,
and ,,, Weekend chores.
Everybody works like a TEAM.
Even a child can learn to put their toys in a basket.
In the morning, someone had to set the table. Expecting Mom or Dad, or just Mom to do it all ,,, is so unfair a burden.
Someone had to load the dishwasher.
Someone had to take out the trash.
Same for dinner.
Some one had to help cook and do the prep work, cutting ,,, washing on a small wooden step at the sink ,,,
On the weekends, someone, usually the boy , had to mow the front and back lawns. Someone had to windex all the windows , inside and out, usually a 2 kid job. Someone had to bury all the cat and dog poo.
I know parents in the 90s and 20-00s who would never think of infringing on their child's free time to grow and learn and experiment. One of those is now a meth-addict, liar, thief, often in jail.
