Teamwork

We have been having issues with Eric thinking he doesn’t have to do his fair share of the house work. He will make huge mess when eating and leave it. Or when he goes to the bathroom he will not even lift the seat or not pay attention and pee anywhere. So, for the next few days he is cleaning the entire kitchen and bathroom alone. He doesn’t like it too much, but hopefully this will help him. He’s only 8, almost 9, but in our house we work as a team. Everyone has responsibilities, which include chores. And every does their fair share, according to age and such. It just makes things work easier. And if you do a little at a time every day, you can keep the house work down to a minimum. It doesn’t seem overwhelming and the house stays picked up. We save the major cleaning for when we rearrange. There’s more to life than constant cleaning. That’s why be believe in clean enough. Not spotless, but clean enough!
