Everyone, as they gain skill, and begin to "wake up" as people, ownes something.
It is not just a chore. Others won't do it. Intended. Or, if they do, it is a debt of sorts. Consequenses.
Say the cat box gets too dirty. The bathroom stinks. People notice, but more importantly, the one who owns it notices eventually.
Then the dots get connected.
My wife would have them do meals, planning, money, store. And then make them do it. We ate the outcome.
Lol (was interesting at times)
Doing it this way does carry some risk. Say a light meal because someone did not think it through the planning, or shitty school lunch one day because same, or someone got the munchies. But, just make sure it is livable, not super ugly.
I did car stuff, fixing things. The kids would check things, and do upkeep. I did double check these. But out of sight. Oil, lights, tires.
Same for the yard.
For a time, I was self employed. One older daughter did billing and books.
Think language immersion. It is like that. Let them sink, and they will swim. Or, if not, pull them out, let them be kids, and try again. Often they would ask me for something.
