Tip #16 Getting Help at Home and Making it Fun
Wednesday Aug 14, 2019
Wednesday Aug 14, 2019
This is a fun tool Sheryl has used at home for years. Instead of doing, you can now ask and educate your family members about what it takes to care for their house. The form available on the Get a Life Balanced website is called "You Just Inherited the House." Don't take the easy way out and clean by yourself because it's easier than asking or listening to complaints. Educate and give them a tool that will benefit them when THEY have a place (or dorm room) of their own!
