Moms, are you sick and tired of constantly picking up after your kids and husband?
Miranda Crimbring, a busy mom of three, was and decided to do something about it. She set up an experiment for her family to see if they would finally lend a helping hand, and then shared the hilarious results on Facebook.
Let's just say this experiment didn't exactly go as planned.
Okay, okay. I know some people enjoy cleaning but for the most part, a lot of people would rather sit on the couch and binge Netflix than dust and scrub. I know because I am one of those people.
I don't know why this is, but families need to step up their games and help their moms out. Moms are busy enough! They don't need to be cleaning up after everyone all the time, too.
Miranda Crimbring placed a piece of paper on the floor with a five-dollar bill underneath.
She then waited to see how long it would take for someone in her house to pick up the garbage and throw it away.
Whoever threw away the trash would get to keep the money as a reward.
Well, lots of other people thought so, too!
Since posting her idea on Facebook, Miranda's picture has received nearly 300,000 shares.
People were commenting that they would gladly come over and help Miranda clean.
This photo was taken nearly three days after Miranda put the paper on the floor and NO ONE in her house had picked it up yet, despite multiple people using the bathroom.
Little do those kids know that underneath that garbage is a sweet, sweet five-dollar bill waiting for them. Oh, well. Their loss.
However, she still didn't throw the garbage away and moved the paper to the counter. Sigh.
Well, at least now the kids will know to pay attention to the garbage on the ground and maybe even pick it up once in a while.
"Here we go!!! Ten bucks says the cat does something with it first. Thanks Miranda for the inspiration," said Facebook user Jullia Chadwell.
Honestly, this is such a brilliant idea and a great way to show your family that moms shouldn't be the only ones cleaning. I think families across the country are in for a wake-up call thanks to this post.
