My kids 15 yrs (boy), 16 yrs (girl) My husband works and I am a stay at home mom & wife. I do almost everything regarding the house and yard . Including, but not limited to dishes,cooking, laundry, vacuuming ,dusting ,shopping weeding, watering, cutting the grass. I don't mind but I feel guilty and overwhelmed when I don't get it finished. My kids help out when I nag but I don't want the stress of nagging. I have decided that for now on the kids are responsible for the house work. I will do the yard work and my hubby will work and fix things around the house. I will cook and continue to clean my bedroom and clean my messes and my hubbys messes and I will also do whatever cleaning I feel like doing and that will be only as I choose.(I am sure it will be quite a bit I am not lazy) Does this seem fair ?? Should I give the kids allowance or should I just continue to pay for EVERYTHING including but not limited to(clothes, cell phones, bikes,slurpees, movies etc. etc)
