My wife and I just started watching "Your Honor" on Netflix. In the first episode, the judge's son kills someone in a hit and run and comes home and tries to wash his bloody clothes. He doesn't know how to use the washer and ends up flooding the laundry room.
I turned to my wife and said, "that's why we insisted on teaching the kids to do their own laundry."
If you're doing it right, by the time your kids are 18, they should be able to take care of every basic task in the home on their own.
I was definitely expected to competently conceal my own felonies by 18, smdh.
As you should be!
If you can't hide evidence before you can be tried as an adult, you deserve what you get.
"take care of"
