Family participation in the housework, its organization, and cleaning is an important duty.

Many young people and men tend to avoid or ignore sharing responsibilities equally in the home, which is a trait that can aggravate the woman of that household.

However, sociologists and family relationship specialists shared guidance on how to encourage men to participate in the home.

Youngsters, regardless of gender, must be treated as responsible people and tasked with duties in the house such as putting the shoes, schoolbags, and practice gear in their designated place.

*Second tip:

During adolescence, teenagers tend to break the rules and not obey orders, so parents must be patient with them when they do not carry out their chores.

The mother should be patient and not carry out the tasks she entrusted to her children if they take their sweet time doing them.

Third tip:

Women should open up about men's participation in household chores makes them happy.

Fourth tip:

Experts advise wives to be patient and deal intelligently with a solid plan to get the husband to share responsibilities equally in the home and not to verbally lash out because it will backfire.

Fifth tip:

Specialists also advise women that if they do not like the way the task was carried out, then they should not utter negative words or redo it in front of the doer but rather thank and praise them for what they did to encourage them to keep it up.
