I do have youngsters whom are on 2 month placements, 22-25 year olds and some have no idea on how to feed themselves or even how to iron a shirt. I have one here at the moment, and I have had to teach him everything. Now its a very harmonious home and he has turned out to be an exceptional cook. but I do wonder what his parents were thinking when they sent him out without any basic life skills !!!!!
Just have to be very patient and understanding, but also its incredibly rewarding when you see someone grow with their self-esteem.
Happy to let guests cook a quick meal in the evenings as long as they clean, wipe, put away. In other words leave it as they found it i.e. Spotless.
If its left in a mess I have no hesitation dragging them by the feet, presenting them with cleaning materials and not allowed to leave until clean.
