3. Describe how the ways of doing household chores was different when you were growing up than it is today. When I was growing up, I had brothers and sisters and we all had to share the chores. Each week we had a different room we had to clean. We had to mop the floor every day in the kitchen cus it was such a busy room and the floor got filthy. Now, I have a shark floor cleaner and I love it. I only had two boys, and sad to say, I never made them do much cleaning. They are both learning now to do that on their own.

Chores - what were those? We didn't have any chores except to keep our rooms clean once we were old enough to do it. My parents weren't much for housekeeping - so it's funny that my brother and I both grew up to be neat freaks.
ReplyDeleteOh.. I was a mean mom! I made ours do everything.. that I had to do as a kid! From cooking to cleaning.. even laundry. About the only thing they never had to do.. is weed.. cause.. I never planted a garden! lol
ReplyDeleteI don't think things have really changed since I was a kid. We had a dishwasher though my mom always insisted we wash the pans by hand, I hated that. Now I never do pans by hand, everything goes in the dishwasher.
ReplyDeleteBoth my parents worked so us kids did all the housework and have the dinner on the table when they got home. I could cook a full roast dinner by the time I was 9. Now both hairball and I are home full time so I do the majority but still make the kids help.
ReplyDeleteI never had a dishwasher till just a couple of years ago....always hated doing dishes by hand! lol
