Then you must have a large sink or you must wash dishes every single time you eat rather than once a day. We don't have time for that.
I love how this has got you absolutely stumped. You can pick stuff from the sink and put it out of the way. You can pile it on the goddamn floor if you need to. Whether your kid puts the dishes away or not is actually what allows you to wash the dishes. You could also move them. But you say the kid needs to do that so you can wash the dishes (even though you could wash them without it). It just makes it more convenient. See what I mean?
It's "got me absolutely stumped" because we have a small kitchen and a small sink. There's no room. We could put them on the floor, but we have dogs. Conceivably we could do something like put all the dishes on a shelf in the living room and come and get them one by one to clean them. Maybe you think that would teach my daughter something, but other than 'my parents are doing something silly when we could just use the dishwasher,' I don't know what it would be.
Could it be that you don't know my situation because you've never been to my home?
Moving them onto another surface also means an additional surface to clean. Floors don't need anything more than regular vacuuming or a quick mop most of the time. If you get grease there, that's so much more work to clean up.
