How do you do this? I mean what do your teens contribute to round the house if anything? My DD is 17 doesn't cook, clean, iron, wash, how can I start to get her to do this without money being involved? I try to get her to help me with meas but she just groans about it but she just has no common sense and I worry about if she goes to uni how she'll cope. The other night she came to bed and left the door unlocked, I went mad at her last night as she insited on lighting a candle in her room and I imagined she'd fall asleep and burn the house down she's such an airhead.
What can I do???
