Because he seems to think so. He's 6 and a half.
Today I have asked him to do the following; - tidy the toys away in the playroom before getting arts and crafts stuff out,
- clear the table after each meal (just taking plates into the kitchen - I do the washing up myself),
- quick hoover of the playroom and living room (they're inter-connected and not that big, and I don't expect him to do under furniture - just what's visible).
- put his own pile of clean, folded washing away,
- do a final quick tidy of the playroom before bed.
As a result I have been subjected to a screaming tantrum everytime I've asked him to do something. He has had plenty of play time and active outdoor time inbetween each chore but because his 2 year old sister doesn't have to put her own clothes away (yet) I'm apparently akin to a slave driver. Aibu?
