I wonder that too especially about the people that are either doing more things or have more kids, I can barely keep up with what I'm doing XD

Best to sell them on eBay, cash in and live the high-life methinks.
They were useful for being on the parenting side of the parent/child dynamic so I could figure out how to write that accurately, one less thing to wing XD
Good for doing the chores too...Is that a thing these days? I had to when I was a kid.
Naaaaaaaaahhhhh let kids enjoy being kids and have a carefree childhood all the way up til they're 30.
Chores are definitely a thing in my house. We all live here, we all share the load, and they do a bit more (they each have a couple of common areas assigned to them to clean/tidy each week, and how they keep their own bedrooms is their problem, my only requirement is keep a clear path to the door, and they're supposed to do their own dishes but that's an ongoing challenge) now that they're older.
30 and beyond I fear Ry. Assholes.
I like how you run the household. Chores aren't just about cleaning up it's about discipline, ownership and responsibility; that's why they make military personnel make their beds so perfectly...In recruits most very quickly learn to have a pillow case sent by family...They keep that spare and each morning put it on the pillow instead of the original so it's perfect. That, or they take the original off and use a t-shirt instead then replace the fresh pillow case each morning. Discipline.
Sure that works. It was mostly just about everyone helping to keep the house clean as I was a bit over doing everything myself and when they stop being babies and toddlers they can start helping out in small ways XD
Hell even when they're toddlers they can help out in smaller ways (or at least I was getting them to "help" as toddlers even though it made more work for me, was relentlessly undone by well-meaning relatives who sometimes came over to help and kept "distracting" them with tv or other things because they "just want to get it done" though >_<)
Back in the good old days they'd be in the salt mines at sever years old. Ah the good old days, I lament their passing. Lol.
