My brother just turned 12 and currently he does nothing but leave all his stuff around and once in a while clean his room. I know that's just a boy thing but I want him to grow up to be a responsible adult, so I'm trying to make a chore chart for him.
I would like him to take out the garbage, do some dishes, keep his room clean, and various things like that.
Any ideas how to encourage him and make his tasks rewarding? I want him to feel like he is helping the family and not just doing those things just because he's being made to.
No "go ask your parents" answers please. I'm 22 and basically raising him myself because my mother doesn't care.
