housework and chores

Hi there,

We are currently having a bit of an issue with household chores. My 16 year old daughter is very reluctant to do anything to help in the house apart from very occasionally tidy her bedroom. Occasionally she does the pots etc, after a lot of nagging. But, when asked to help with anything else says that her friends do nothing to help around the house and get loads of spending money. Is this normal behaviour for teenagers. As I used to help my mum out with chores or am I being old fashioned?

Would they like to come and live at our house? I'll even pay
