Amen, REt!! You did a wonderful job with your daughter.

I am teaching my boys to cook, clean, fix things, care for the animals, everything that needs doing, everyone in the house needs to pitch in. Seeing me build a fence, work a chain saw, or fix the pool filter and the sprinkler system is as normal to them as watching me cook dinner and clean the house, except that as they get older they take on more responsibility. It's more work training them than to do it myself, but it is slowly paying off!

I cannot stand helpless men or women. I don't mind cooking and cleaning and shopping but anyone who says I should do these things because of my gender can put it where the sun don't shine. I do see that women usually do more of the household stuff, although I have a couple of friends whose husbands are really good cooks so the husbands do the cooking.
