Really, moms, what would happen if we all went on strike? (stop and consider). The truth is, they would survive. But could we handle the resultant chaos? No way. That's why we cave, saying "I can do it faster and better, so I'll just do it." The family, sensing this, calls our bluff, knowing we will take up the slack. So, quit being the martyr, and let the clutter pile. Eventually, your ungrateful family will see the light and dig themselves out (as long as you aren't the "chicken" on the narrow dirt road, yielding the right of way to the oncoming car). Once you set the wheels in motion (as in, "I'm not cleaning up this mess any more!"), you must stand your ground, hold the wheel, and refuse to yield. No matter how inept they've seemed in the past, I promise you , they won't wind up in the ditch I hate to be the one to tell you this, but the person who taught them the lie (as in Only Mom Can Do It), is the one who keeps on doing it.

Maybe you didn't, I'll have to read it again. Sue Give them a healthy dose of cod liver oil! Heh Heh

I'll join your crusade. This disease is rampant in my home. I am hoping that having to "infected" members move out next spring will lessen the contagion and allow me to take more positives steps toward eliminating this disease once and for all in my home. You give me hope. ;-) Preach it, sister! I’ll join your crusade. This disease is rampant in my home.

Perfect timing as my daughter was whining at me to pleeeeeease help her make her bed this morning. I asked if she'd help me make mine and she said "No! It's your bed!" And then she conned Daddy into helping her make hers. They're in cahoots! Ha ha ha! This really made me laugh.
