[QUOTE="butterflydreams, post: 161491"] That's a good idea too, Meow. What I am trying to accomplish is not only they need some responsibility, but I need the help. It's like pulling teeth sometimes to get them to do anything. I can ask my easy child daughter in the morning "Would you please empty the dishwasher for me today?" I will get a "no problem Mom" then when I get home at 6pm, its not done, plus there is a mess all over the counter too. Other times, she does fine. As far as tying to allowance. They are constantly wanting money here, money there and just expecting it. I just don't want it to be where they get an allowance and they haven't done anything all week. If I don't do something to make them earn it, they won't do squat around the house and it has to be a big enough incentive to get them to lift a finger. [/QUOTE]
