I love this post!!

This morning, I woke up before her, and made her waffles, at least I think there was a waffle underneath the pound of chocolate chips and whipped cream. I did all the laundry and cleaned the rooms that she told me she was going to clean. I told her the next paycheck was for her, not for " pitch in money". I thanked her for everything. She had the biggest smile on her face. We did get a cleaning/cooking schedule planned

Monday+Tuesday I clean and cook
Wednesday + Thursday, she cleans and cooks( unless there's work that night or a big test)
Friday out to eat, share cleaning
Saturday- cook together, I clean( hoping she goes out)
Sunday- cook together, no cleaning

You really should not use this phrase when it comes to girls/women, it is disrespectful and really shows you are not interested in who she is but what she can do for you.

You got my post wrong. I'd never marry a girl who's out every night partying at the club, because if we are going to have a child, what is she going to do ? Bring the child with her at the club while she's drunk ?No thanks.

At her age it is very normal to be get into practice to be a responsible adult. It's nice to hear about a kid doing that instead of sitting staring at the screen of her smartphone. She plans to have a home of her own one day, and guess who she's practicing on?

Remember when she was 8 and you had to eat every piece of goo that came out of her Easy-Bake Oven? This is the next step.

AND she doesn't have her mom breathing down her neck, so she gets to learn to do things her own way.
