My husband grew up in a house where his mom made his bed, straightened his room, brought down his dirty laundry, folded it, and put it away, etc. basically he had no chores growing up. I on the other hand was responsible to bring my dirty clothes to the laundry, put them away when they were clean and folded, make my bed, clean my room as well as other household tasks like careing for the pets, dishes, etc. Now on to what we are debating about, we have three children 7 years, 3 years, and 5 months and I am a SAHM (have been for a little over a year) and I believe that our children should be able to make their own beds (obviously the seven year old by himself and the three year old with help), bring down their dirty laundry, put it away when it is done, straighten their rooms etc. My husband on the other hand thinks that I am "being just plain lazy" because I don't do it. I have enough things to take care of every day.
