I'm not willing to settle for that narrative and I hope you're not either. The truth is, a lot of what you feel guilty about isn't even something you need to feel guilt over. It's things out of your control or it's based on expectations that aren't relevant to you. Let's go over what it would be like to use the feeling of mom guilt as a little red flag that simply gets our attention. It allows us to stop and actually make a decision on whether this deserves to drain us and make us feel bad or if it's an awareness tool to change our mindset or our actions to get one step further from a life of mom guilt.

Share this episode with a friend who is struggling to get her kids to help around the house. https://www.mommadeplans.com/162 And if you found this episode helpful, let others know this is a good place to find tips by leaving a rating or review - thank you! -- We all want our kids to chip in more and help around the house, right? But it never quite goes the way we want. Their version of helping never really meets our standards. That's because we've skipped a vital step when passing out chores. The problem isn't your child's inability to perform a task. Have you ever taken on a new role at work or gotten a new job? Part of the expected process is that you will receive training. Duh, right? Well are you asking your kids to take on new jobs that you haven't specifically trained them on at their level? (sorry, you performing the task around them every day doesn't count) If we're honest, we skip this step because we think it's obvious and not something we experienced. Or we have unrealistic expectations without regard to their personality and age appropriate skills. The system is flawed. So I'm bringing you the 5 important parts to include before you completely hand over a new task to your kid and expect them to complete it flawlessly.
