how much of the daily housechore to you split with your spouse or kids? ..

Hi, well i think if we are a family, we should all learn to share and do the household chores, as it lessens the burden of any one person, who would otherwise have to do all the work all alone. We are four members in our family or call it 5,including our pet dog too, as he also helps around ! Well my kids , have been trained right when they were small, to clean their own rooms, polish their shoes, do up their beds, lay out the table, dust the rooms, wash their small clothes,and incae of need even sweep and mop the floors and ash dishes along with me. So they have no problems and do all their work, very willingly. My husband look after our dog and generally helps me around do up the laundry and the garden etc, and our dog brings us the morning newspaper and his own bowl for his milk time in the morning. ! So we are a happy family, and have always been sharing our work.

I take care of paying electricity bill, telephone bill, water bill, internet bill, mobile bill, bring medicines, groceries, vegetables, ready my son to school. Rest of the work is hers.

Normally those strenuous and heavy jobs always go to my hubby. The remaining household chores are left to me and my sister in law. The kids have their own duties assigned as well. They have to tidy up their beds, washing their plates, shoes and socks and other minor personal items.

I do the majority of the house work, but my husband helps a lot. He carries laundry up and down the stairs, and washes it sometimes. He helps put it away, too. He also takes out the trash, and vacuums. He cooks about once a week and is pretty good about loading the dishwasher. My son is only 18 months old, so the only chore he has is to put his toys away when he is done playing with him. He also likes to feed the dogs, but he isn't required to do it, he just likes to help if he's up when my husband or I do it. I think that the majority of the cleaning and things falls on me because I'm home all day. I work about 20-25 hours a week, but it's almost all from home. So it's easier for me to get stuff done around the house.

It depends upon the mutual understanding and the time available at the disposal of the respective partners and their interests in discharging particulars house hold chores.

I think its fair enought to share the household chores with your better half. I am a housewife and I dont expect help from my hubby on weekdays because i know that he too is busy. On weekends he helps me a lot. Like he chops vegetables, cleans the vehicle, gives bath to our kid. He does all these on his own. I dont demand that he should do it.

My husband and I split the chores. And it really is a matter of what needs to be done and who has time that day, that's all. Sometimes I think it'd be easier if we had a schedule or a chart, because he always needs to ask me what should be done, or I have to tell him. But if there are dirty dishes, he'll wash them. And if there is a lot of laundry, he'll do it. He just doesn't look down, so he doesn't realize that floors need to be washed or vacuumed to stay cleaned.

Mostly I do the housework but I want to. I don't like things dirty or cluttered. Right now I don't have a choice because we just moved in to a house. I'm also trying to get ready for a garage sale this weekend so maybe the house will be less cluttered. My fiance' helps around the house. He takes out the garbage (that's the only thing I won't do), he does dishes sometimes and he cooks sometimes. I started doing chores when I was small. I think children should start doing chores at an early age so they will know what they need to do to keep a nice house. They make some of the mess too so they should clean up too. I think children should take out the garbage, pick up after themselves, fold laundry, and other things like that.

i have no spouse but i have four kids. yes we split all the chores in the house and it is really a big help. my first born is 16 he washes the dishes during tuesday and thursday and saturday lunch time and he cleans the dinning room. my 2nd born is 15 she cleans their bed room and washes the dishes every monday, wednesday friday lunch time. 3rd born is 13 cleans the living room and washes the dishes monday, wednesday and friday dinner. and the youngest 11 cleans the bath room and washes paltes dinner time during tuesday, thursday and saturday. i cook and wash clothes. sometimes they wash the clothes and cook to. they are a big help really around the house.

My son does the sweeping, and takes the trash out. He was doing dishes before he broke his arm, and he keeps his room clean, plus he helps fold and put away the laundry. He does get an allowance for the work he does. My husband and I share the cooking in our household, but I do all the dishes. I think that we split the household duties pretty well, he works full time and I only work part time, so I think that I should do most of the housework. But our son likes to help out to, and have the extra money to spend.

During the week, my fiance and I usually split up the household chores, though not always evenly. On the weekends, when I am home and he is at work, I usually take over doing most of the chores. Since he works and goes to school, while I only work, I don't mind picking up some extra chores; when he was not working or in school, he did the same for me.

I do all the housework currently since I am not working (stay at home mom). 10 months ago, when I am working, we will share the workload. We did not really care who do more or less. It depend the day who are more tired. At times, he will do all the housework when I am exhausted... vice versa. Currently, he is the sole breadwinner and very tired after the work. So, I will get the housework done, nurture my kids, teach my kids on how to do simple housework chores.

i am bachalor. i am not a married person i just spend my time in work & Family only with my parents.
