In my opinion, adolescents should do some housework, such as washing their dishes or cleaning, maybe wiping down the tables, or even mopping the floor. Household chores are important for their personal development. For example, they will learn how to clean their own house. And then maybe in the future when they are living independently, they will need to know how to take care of themselves. So doing housework at a younger age can help them to better understand how housework works and it's also better preparation for their future. So that's why I believe that doing housework is a good thing, especially for young people.
