Teen Q&A: Of messy houses and summertime schedules … Q I want my kids to clean up after themselves. I don’t think it’s asking too much to put their dishes in the dishwasher. I work all day and come home to a kitchen full of dishes and everyone asking, “What’s for dinner?” I have to clean the kitchen to start dinner. I’ve tried yelling, removing privileges and nothing lasts for more than a day or two. I am at my wits end. |
