What time of day do you load and unload dishwasher?
And how often do your children do this chore with or without help?
How often do you run it? |
Re: What time of day do you load and unload dishwasher?
My children unload it in the morning. We run it daily or sometimes twice. My 18 yo fills it and my 15 yo starts it.

No dishwasher here, just hand washing. And I'm kind of picky about how it's done so I prefer to do it myself. :shifty

Have your other kids ever helped? Just got more annoying to have multiple helpers? My little one likes to help, and the big ones complain. I'm adding chores until they stop complaining about being functional members of this house. ---------- Post added at 05:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:06 PM ---------- Quote:

We run it every evening and I empty it before I got to bed.
Early bird has a visceral reaction to the smell of dishwashing detergent and will not go near a dishwasher after it has fun. Every one loads there own plates exc in to the dishwasher. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk |

I run it in the evening (not right after dinner since people sometimes snack), then unload it myself in the morning. I used to have my kids unload, but as they started to sleep later, I just preferred to do it myself and get on with it so no one (including me) has an excuse to put their dishes in the sink instead of straight to the dishwasher.

I unload in the morning. For some reason all my kids dislike that chore. I “cheat” and put some stuff that is harder to put away into the dish rack. The kids don’t mind unloading that. :shrug
I try to run it nightly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I run it at minimum twice a day, but usually 3 times.
It gets unloaded first thing in the morning, loaded throughout the day and run when it's full, then unloaded late afternoon, before dinner. I load and we rotate who unloads - along with wiping table/counters, sweeping the floor, and emptying the compost bucket. (Each kid has one of those jobs each week.) The dishwasher gets run so often that I usually help out whoever is supposed to do it. I put away the high stuff for the vertically challenged ones. |

Dc used to empty it but with even crazier schedules (sports, jobs, friends, etc) - usually dh or I empty it. Sometimes a dc will still but less often - they do other less time sensitive chores.
If it runs overnight, Ill empty it when I make lunches in the am. Dh is in charge of dishes during the week and I am in charge of dishes on the weekend. We run it when full. No time of day. |

I run it whenever it is full, minimum once a day, sometimes twice. Children alternate unloading it, but DH and I will do it if they're not around or sleeping. DS sometimes leaves an item or two on the counter if he's unsure where it goes or can't reach, otherwise completely independent.

12yo unloads the breakable items, 8yo unloads the non-breakables, 10yo loads/runs it, and 15yo does all of the handwashing each evening (pots, bulky items, non-dishwasher safe items, etc). Unloading is typically done after breakfast, then run when full. We run it once or twice a day.
