i assign each child a chore and they keep that chore for a long time. seriously for at least a year and longer if i don't get around to changing it. they complain that they have been doing ______ for so long they hate it. i don't care. they still have to do it. that way i or my children never have to check the chart for whos turn it is to do _____. because they have been doing it for so long they cannot forget, LOL! i hate it when a new year comes and they talk me into changing the chores because i am too tired to remember who does what. and about someone being gone - they have to trade jobs with a sibling or else. they don't even risk the 'what else' because they believe me and my 'or else'!
