​@@kwclove7623Same here I was the only one to clean our house at 10 years of age I would get pointed out that I thought I had done well but not a window or oven done even though no one else did anything,when I would clean up and vacuum I would find it like a pigsty a hour later because as they said this is not a show house we need to live,when I left I still went twice a week because they would never have lifted a finger.

[@mariechandler4004]

The mum is complaining that the boys don't offer to clean and won't stack the dishwasher. SHE BROUGHT THEM UP SO THE BOYS PICKED UP THE ATTITUDES OF THE MUM. DONT YOU DARE BLAME KIDS WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO RAISE THEM WITH THE RIGHT QUALITIES IN LIFE. Lazy bugger.

[@HisNeverland]

the mum can't expect the kids to want to clean. most kids don't want to clean, they need to be taught (haha well most kids do, that girl is amazing). it's the parent (s) responsibility to keep the house clean and to teach the kids to help them.

[@lizhiggins9375]

As a mother and a homemaker I am in complete shock! If my husband came home to a mess like that I would be completely embarrassed. I don't think I could possibly allow my child to live in such conditions. I just pray they've kept it clean!

[@jasminecoshall1064]

Liz Higgins I do not know howwwwwwwwww her husband let’s her leave her house like that😭 if my husband came home to our house he would honestly run away 😂😂😂😂 I don’t know how she expects her kids to want to clean when they’ve been brought up their whole lives without seeing a clean room it’s madness

[@Alwpiano]

If my parents came to my flat and it was like that, they'd say "right that's it. You're moving back in with one of us. You'll have to give up the flat. You can't cope or be trusted"

[@LouLou-bu2th]

Good point, thank you. :)

[@raquellofstedt9713]

+SingleLaneRoad agreed.It's hard to force the energy if one is feeling that badly (and a real depression will knock the wind out of you for sure) especially if the other folks in the family don't help much. I find myself forcing a basic list through (bathrooms, floors, dishes, sheets, clothes.) More than that, if I'm doing badly (I have periodic ups and bad downs) my hubby has to take.

[@raquellofstedt9713]

+Raquel Löfstedt But then again, I also work outside the home fulltime, so maybe it's hard to compare...

[@kathleendigregorio1701]

I agree - a mother at home raising young kids, cleaning, cooking good wholesome foods, tending homework etc is a great foundation for life - even if this mother worked two hours a day, the house would be livable. Toss all TV and laptops in a locked closet until the kids start doing their chores without any sass. This kind of mess creates chaos in young minds.

[@jkl799]

Lou Lou: Exactly! Dad isn't off the hook either but she should be all over it.

[@archangel9191]

Awww, that little girl, Mikaela, Michaela, is so sweet. She's just 11 and already got the cleaning bug and keeps her own room clean and tidy and serene, I can see what Kim meant about getting on with her, because like with the episode with that mum, Nooska and 9 year old son, Conner, that little girl in this case reminds Kim of her own childhood and how she started out cleaning at home as a kid, plus, I think, it passed from her grandmother I think, who was a cleaner lady of some kind once.

[@eleanorhogan8643]

Michaela must be dissappointed and upset by the state of the rest of the house.

[@deniseg-hill1730]

Rachel Krushelnicki Remember the UK is a very small country compared to Canada. Current population is about 63 million. What is the population of Canada. In the UK only wealthy people can afford big houses. A decent house near or in a country town in the South West will be a minimum of £380,000. In the South East not including London it's £500,000 plus. Forget London that would be millions. A 2 bed flat in a new development in Wapping E1 Overlooking the River Thames 4 years ago was a minimum of £2.5 million. (10 minutes walk from the Tower of London).

Forcing children to live in that environment, exposing them to dangerous mold, feeding them food cooked in a highly unsanitary kitchen, not making sure they have a healthy place to sleep unless they clean it all themselves of their own volition, is child neglect. And they have a toddler in the house whose immune system isn't developed yet! I understand the mother was overwhelmed, probably suffering from depression, but that's no excuse to leave it like that. Her 11-year-old child had to beg someone to help them.
