how you feeling about if your kids should cleaning house?

my mom makes feeling sick in her stomatch and also she very embrassment i says its really EWWW when she and me help clean at my brother's house and my brother never clean his house on his own!! expect he lazy dues smoking lots remind of my late grandfather who also smoking chain for longtimes till he got 2 heart attack in 1975 and 1976.

when i was his ages i never clean my own and i learn my lesson but i help my mom clean kitchen all the times when i lives with my mom must orderly clean kitchen,living room and rooms.

i told my mom about if i got married somedays i would have my own rules to clean house expect kitchen,living room and rooms too its totally orderly neato for guests or family visits include thanksgiving or christmas and also parties.
 
I voted, I don't think so! My kids are gone from home and I would never go clean their homes.

Hopefully I taught them well enough when they lived with me.

But if not they are still responsible.
 
Which question are you asking? Are you asking if I would clean my boys house when they live out on their own? or if I clean my own house? You asking two different questions based on your poll and your original post.

Ah, I only got the one about cleaning your kids home.

I want to point out that of course I clean my own home!!:wave:
 
I keep my house clean. I cant function in a messy house.

When my children move out on their own and dont keep their places clean and allow their places to become so disgusting, I would be very disappointed in them but I wouldnt clean up their houses each time. That wouldn't teach them responsibility.

I hope that answers your question.
 
Being neat & clean is important in my house. My boys use the porch mat to wipe their shoes and take them off at the door. They also wash their hands before eating, helping to cook, etc. And they are responsible for their rooms. I only do the heavy cleaning. They also clean their bathroom, tub, shower, sink, toilet, etc.

They take turns taking out the garbage, helping keep the cages clean for our birds, liter box and letting the dog out often.

It works for us! No matter the gender, they should be taught at an early age to pick up their messes and help clean the house.

No, I would not clean their house whenever they leave home. It's their responsibility to clean it, since it's their home.
 
I'm the same as rockin'robin. I do the heavy cleaning and for my boys I go by the age-appropriate chores, they have a chore chart simple list tacked up on the fridge and I listed the things they can do included keeping their bedrooms clean, making their beds, and putting away their dirty clothes in the dirty clothes bin, feed the dog, take the dog outside and put their dirty dishes in the sink. My youngest one cannot do any heavy lifting because of his age, weight and height, he cannot take garbage outside, my oldest son do that. ;)

we are teaching our son this stuff now.. cleaning up after an adult is way wierd :dizzy:
 
I hate messes... though I must admit right now I have some clothes to put away on my dresser that I did the other day. I do a deep clean in my room quite frequently and it doesn't take long because I keep it fairly clean (except for the clothes I forget to put away... which I think I will do tomorrow). My floors are usually spick and span because I make sure to go through my room with a swiffer and vacuum as often as I think of it. My room right now is a bit of a mess, but it won't take much to clean (I am thinking of doing it tomorrow). As for the rest of the house, I only clean up after my own messes... but if I notice my brother leave something in the basement after eating, I will get him to empty it in the garbage in the kitchen. I am proud to say that my room is often called the cleanest in the house. :P
 
I clean my own, and if my child is old enough to live on their own, they are old enough to clean on their own. Momma shouldn't have to go to his house and clean it up for him. If it's that bad then maybe your brother should not be living on his own. I would find it embarrassing if my mother showed up at my apartment/house and cleaned up after me like I was still a child.

Ditto.

The earlier it is, the better it is for them to adapt to learn their independence but also to take responsibility for it.
 
i would agree with posts and some disagree posts..

my brother never clean his own house its totally digusting expect kitchen,living room,bathroom AND his ROOM!! im rather not clean his room.. im sure he will clean his own house in future PEROID!!

i do wash dishes in machine and wash clothes also than my brother sometimes i clean my room not lots
 
My daughters know that I am freaking out clean! Of course I let them leave toys messy a while! :)

My advice... Don't help him! :shrug:

Good luck :)
 
Phillips is right. He's an adult now, let him live in his own filth. Either he'll get sick of it and start cleaning up after himself, OR someone will take notice of his living conditions and contact DHS or the city police to have him clean it up and/or undergo an evaluation to determine his ability to care for himself properly.
 
Like others here my young son does age appropriate chores. And he is in charge of keeping his bedroom cleaned up, he vacuums, dusts, tidies, puts his own laundry away, washes floors, cleans mirrors, unloads the dishwasher....I will not have him growing up not having any idea of how to do these things like some people. We often work to do chores together.
