Should parents do chores?
Not all of them, just their fair share or at least clean up after themselves. The decision to have a kid also comes with taking care of it so meal and board should come with the package if the parents decide to have a kid, right? It's not like they want their kids dropping out of school to work at a construction site or some other under-the-table job so that they can pull their weight of the rent and buy food for themselves. Even if parents were allowed to do that to their kids, wouldn't they be responsible for ruining their kid's future for not getting an education. So in a way, shouldn't parents also be responsible for some of the household chores or at the very least clean up after themselves. I mean it's not the kid's fault that the condom broke and the parents were ready for sex but not responsibility. It's not like we were the ones that made the decision to have kids.
Update:@all the people who say working is a chore. Parents should at least clean up after themselves right? Having kids shouldn't be an excuse to be a slob at home. I'm not saying that parents should do all the chores, just their weight of it. The mess they contribute.

Sure, parents should do chores too. Everyone should help out. It's also the parents job to make sure that their kids can eventually look after themselves. Kids should goto school; Parents goto work. Everyone should clean up. Meal & board doesn't necessarily come with the deal when you are a teenager though. There are lots of parents that just give up & kick their kids out, so I think that kids should be grateful rather than thinking it's their given "right" to free room and board.
I can barely understand what you are ranting about!
Parents DO do chores! Its called 'working'. We do it every day so that kids can eat, have a house to live in, have a bed to sleep in, be educated and go to the movies with their friends on weekends.
So, you have to clean the kitchen, or mow the lawn. Boo Hoo!
How about you take over the parental responsibility instead? I would give ANYTHING to be back at school, studying, with nothing to worry about except getting good grades, and going out with my friends!
You need a reality check!
i completly agree with u.
i absolutely HATE it when parents make their kids do stuff like
clean the house, do the dishes, walk the pets or sometimes babysit their siblings.
if u have children, YOU r the one who is supposed to take care of THEM.
not the other way around.
if u cant deal with that u shouldnt have kids in the first place.
and yeah some people r like "but its good for kids to learn about resonsibility"
even so, what if ur kids had been mentally challenged or handicapped or something?
if u have kids u have to be prepared to take full care of them until theyr legally an adult.
giving kids chores is stupid. unless they acctually enjoy doing it.
ummm.... They already did their share of chores when they were children.
It's a cycle. Your born, you old enough to do chores, you get a job, get married, and hey look! someone is born and the cycle repeats
You sound like a self absorbed spoiled little brat who in time hopefully might grow out of his narcissistic attitude
Yes! they should because they would just yell at u and expect u to do it but at least our mom does most of it.because we have things to do.like play with our friends and go outside. but we sould just at least like put our cloths away an do our part wat we make so we wouldnt have to that much
you must have lazy parents.............. thats all.............
