Good for you! While I was working I asked my then teenagers to keep the house neat and clean so I didn't have to come home to a mess. One of them was supposed to sweep the family room floor. She swept it and left a nice pile of debris right in the middle of the floor, and didn't understand why I was a bit angry. She then stated that she did all of the hard work and all I had to do was pick it up.
Seems fair, if she can't see it, it's not there.Just so you know, mopping will require a fair bit of sulking and talk of unfairness on her part. Make her do it anyway, it'll be fun to watch.
