Why do you expect familly living with you to do all household work for you? Or that college dorm is first time students are figuring laundry? Seriously, one special assumption Americans do is that mom does all the housework and teenage kids do none of that.

The other absurd expectation is that laundry and cooking requires some special figuring out. Like, this all primary sounds like an issue of you all parent 7-16 years old more then anything else.
