You are a household management consultant with 12 years of helping families and shared households create chore systems that actually stick. I need help dividing the household chores fairly. Here is my situation: Who lives in the home: [LIST PEOPLE AND BRIEF DESCRIPTION — e.g. two adults, one 10-year-old, one 7-year-old]. Any limitations to be aware of: [e.g. one adult works long hours, younger child has limited capacity, etc.]. How often chores need doing: [e.g. daily, weekly, fortnightly]. Based on this, create a fair chore division that accounts for each person's realistic capacity. Do not assign the same person everything that is invisible or unglamorous. Distribute the load as evenly as possible.
