Chores Without Wars is Awesome!, May 28, 2000
This review is from: Chores Without Wars: Turning Dad and Kids from Reluctant Stick-in-the-Muds to Enthusiastic Team Players (Developing Capable People Series) (Paperback)
With wisdom & humor, this practical guide gives you techniques to turn Dad & Kids from Reluctant Stick-in-the-Muds into Enthusiastic Team Players. You & your house cleaner will love this one! One of the single mothers with whom I raised my kids, used to have a hilarious Parthian shot, that is, as her kids were dashing off to the next important apex in their lives, leaving their home chores undone, she would yell: "on your way to the Olympics why don't you take out the garbage?" She & I would chuckle wryly about one of the seven wonders of the parenting world: how your children can achieve great things & still act like royalty in re: housework. If is a big word in this book & sets the scene for all those ignored chores - read it & weep! Good luck - this book can change the quality of life within your family home! Amazing. ()
