And then I simplified the system down all the way to the detergents I was using.

And I think for me, once you find the system that works for your home, that those emotional things go away and it just becomes the task at hand.

Um, so basically what I always think is, and my, by the way, I did not mention having the kids be part of these systems, but they can be right.

My son empties a lint trap, right?

Or my daughter's really good at folding socks.

I got them a little Amazon board and it actually helps them fold their clothes.

My daughter likes to roll her clothes, right?

So it's always fixing the system to help you.

And basically that can be a bonding, connecting time.

It's a teaching moment.

It helps them feel more independent, which kids naturally seek.

sometimes in weird ways if they're not given home CEO, house CEO tasks, right?

There was a study that was done years ago that talked about the most successful children coming out of families right now are the ones that are put in the system to help the house run, not the ones that get excused from it.

And I think it's always important to have someone have a job.

And most of the time I don't,

over dictate that, I ask what part of this system do you want?

Because it allows them as their kids.

Do you remember the fight between the red bottle and the pink bottle?

And I want the pink bottle.

I want the red bottle.
