Nah, they don't even get pocket money.
What do they do get, is a mum and dad that play with them and take them out and we all have lots of fun and love together because no one feels like a maid.
If my eldest said she didn't want to make me a drink, no issues. As it is, it's the third thing out of her mouth when I walk in. "Mummy will you help me make you a drink" and then we sit and chat about our days, her with her milk/water and me with my hot drink. She has half an hour of my time exclusively on her.
How is that a bad thing?
The funny thing is, every single chore the girls have, they can easily refuse to do. But guess what they understand? That means mummy/daddy has to do it, and for every minute we spend doing jobs, that's time we don't have with them.
I also totally fail to see how teaching children life skills, which amounts to less than half an hour a week, is a bad thing.
But then again, I believe in the fact we're raising the future. And my children won't be like the adults of today who think it's acceptable to litter in the street, or the men who won't wash up, or the women who can't change a lightbulb.
OP, if your kids are happy and you keep the lines of communication and negotiation open, well then, everyone is a winner.
