The housework in my family

I think most people think that is classy to say that everyone should share the housework
because all the members have their own responsibilities along the day. The consequence is that young
people have to participate in maintaining the house clean all the day, as well as their parents do it. For
us is very hard to keep the housework because we have extra activities and when we get home we are
exhausted to do anything else, so our room is getting messy and it doesn’t look well.
It is true that we spend many hours at school or practicing extra activities such as extra school
work, sports or learning music and, maybe, we don’t have enough time to do the chores. Therefore,
some people may think that we don’t have to participate in the house chores because it is an exclusive
parent´s duty. Even if it’s true that adults are better on doing this, we still should give them some help.
On the other hand, parents too have a strict timetable and they need help when they arrive at home. It
is not fair that, for example, in my family, mom, who has already her own job responsibilities plus
managing most of our extra school activities, usually does all the tasks at home too. All of us should help
with cleaning and chores in order to spend more time together instead.

A good idea would be that every family allocate housework fairly taking into a count free time of
every family member but also having always in mind that a team work take less to accomplish a task.
Also remaining time after a good team work to be spent for playing or watching TV, walking in the park,
go to the cinema and so on.

In conclusion for gaining as much free time as possible a family must be a team and split their
tasks based on every member potential to do better a specific housework.
