My DS is actually very independent, he helps himself in the kitchen. Makes toast, knows how to use the microwave, makes me cups of tea... Best part is he actually enjoys cleaning so will vacuum, do the dishes etc. He'll also run to the corner shop if I need something.
Don't know if this is normal for an 8 year old so just asking to see if anyone else is blessed with such and angelic child like myself :-D
