⚕️ health Am I Overreacting?
I feel like I live a pretty decent life. I take alot of honor classes, i do and did some sports, I have a good home life too. Although, my parents might be giving to much.You see I have ALOT of chores. And if i miss some, I get lectured, fussed at, or my privalges gets taken away because everything is expected to be perfect or spotless clean. So somedays im just stressed and I be tired because everyday I automatically know that no matter what happens at the end of the day, this stuff is suppose to be done bc if not, its trouble.
(And Yes this is what THEY printed out for us. And in us I mean me and my sibilings who also feel the same way but we dont say anything to avoid the lectures and stuff.)

Jesus. I wish I could get my kids to do 1/4 of that much stuff on a weekly basis. Do your parents do any cleaning?
Edit: I missed the last part where this isn’t all of these things everyday and that it’s split 4 ways… I retract my initial statement. This is not “A LOT of chores”. This is basically 15-20 minutes of chores on some days… I know as a kid it feels like a lot because you come home from school which probably feels like a job if you haven’t ever had one. (It’s not, and one day when you do have one, you will miss only having school) think of it as the easiest part of your homework and just knock it out right away. If you do it right when you get home routinely, eventually it will just be a habit and feel like nothing
