    My kid would always have another logical argument as to why he shouldn’t need to do the thing.

        Schoolwork was NEVER logical to him. Neither was cleaning up after himself.

        As a young person, he had all the time and energy in the world to make his arguments.

        As parents, we did not.

          Perhaps he’s got a point then.

          As a young person, he had all the time and energy in the world to make his arguments. As parents, we did not.

          That’s an excuse not an arguement. Perhaps cleaning and homework are simply illogical.

          (I am making a very dry joke here.)
