So, today, while I was picking up from our usual afternoon messiness, I politely asked Kennedy to pick up some paper she had shredded and was throwing up in the air like confetti. This was her reply:
Me: "Kennedy, can you please pick up the paper and throw it in the garbage?"
Kennedy: "No, I can't mommy. It's not my job."
Me: "Then who's job IS it, Kennedy?"
Kennedy: "It's mommy's job."
WHERE did I go wrong in teaching my children responsibility?!?

oh, I am glad to hear my kids aren't the only ones that say those words!!
Sounds like it's time for a "job chart"! :)
I've been told the same thing and ALSO about cut up paper from projects that's fallen on the floor! I wonder too if I did something wrong somewhere. I do still make them clean it up though.
that sounds WAY too familiar!
