    Depends on the parents. Most of us swing out the other way and test out other ways of being. I don’t clean like my parents did when I was growing up, but getting used to it then means it’s now not a big deal when that is required. I’d like to clean more than I do, and one day I will. It’s not a big deal and I’d rather spend the time with my kids. One day they’ll help me clean regularly. I was given 5 chores a day (in addition to regular things you encounter across your day). It’ll depend on the amount of time to complete, but I’ll probably have my kids do 2-3 per day. Just part of preparing them to live on their own, while we get some help with the workload to maintain a home.
