Its a perspective issue. I always hear complaints from teenagers and people in their 20s and i felt the same when i was that age but its really not that bad. I dont feel like chores take up a significant amount of my free time. Once I have kids though I expect this to change because now im cleaning up after kids who dont do the proper steps to minimise later work.

I'm going solid from 6a-8p If something isn't broken or a project doesn't need done, i get at best a couple hours a night right before bed to read/consume/extra sleep

My wife is going solid from about 10-10, spends a little extra time with the kids and gets an hour or two to herself.

On the weekend, we lose a couple extra hours to sleeping in, about 2/3 of that list still happens, but now there's yard work and taking the kids places. extra meals to cook.

In my 20's and early 30's there were no kids making messes and breaking things and when it was just us, so what if the dishwasher is overfull or the counter wasn't cleaned. and we could afford to eat out more.
