Rule #1
The other day I was driving one of my son’s to an activity he began talking about the differences between girls and boys and school. “You know Mom, I’ve figured it out. School Rule #1 is to always choose girls for partners in group work , any projects and lab work. Being curious I questioned him on his thinking.
“It’s easy Mom. No one cares more about school than girls do and they always want to be in control. So they’ll do most of the work, I’ll get a good mark, and all I have to do is be in an advisory role!!”.
Hard to argue with that!!!
So I asked him, “does that same logic transfer to chores at home?! Because I’m sure I care more about a clean house than you or your brothers do. Is that why I do most of the work?!!!”
To which he replied, “Yup, house rule #1!!!”
