There is a great amount of people in this world today that are neat freaks. When a person walks into a neat freaks home they will already see that from the way it is organized and put together. A person who is a neat freak will always have a clean house, dishes done, nothing laying around, smells good, and everything is top notch out together. There needs to be more people like this, because they would like to see the younger children take after that. When they get older they will understand how to keep a nice clean home. Couch potatoes are unorganized, irresponsible, and unhealthy.
As a result, when being a couch potato it is nothing exciting. It is actually unorganized in many ways. Such as, poor hygiene, when a person has poor hygiene it makes it bad for everyone. No one is going to want to be around them, they will smell, look dirty, and even scary. Also, being unorganized will also make the couch potato not get up and clean the house, which can be dangerous to have a messy house. It is unsanitary and they will never know what could be laying around in that mess, wh...
Some people look at chores as a bad thing. When in reality they are not all that bad.
Suzanne Britt, a teacher at Meredith College and a publisher in essays and textbooks, in her essay “Neat People vs. Sloppy People,” (1983) asserts that people who live cluttered lives are morally better than those who live organized lives. She supports this assertion by using humor and exaggeration to describe both types of people, making generalizations about both sloppy and neat people, repeating “sloppy people” and “neat people” at beginning, and throughout, each paragraph, and illustrating situations in how neat and sloppy people would act differently, along with using her opinion to strengthen her argument. Britt’s purpose is to persuade readers that sloppy, unorganized people are more morally upstanding than neat people in order to encourage
... Show do housework or laundry, yet I have never seen a pile of dirty clothes; the Huxtables do not seem to have a maid. In contrast I go to Herculean efforts to keep the Health Department from knocking on my door. I do not have time to dust. When I'm not picking up shoes, washing clothes, and screaming for anyone to vacuum, I'm on my hands and knees scraping goo off the floor with a butter knife.
Are neat people inferior to sloppy people? This question’s answer will differ depending on the type of person you ask. According to Britt in her essay, “Neat people vs. sloppy people”, the answer is yes. She uses certain qualities, such as oral description to differentiate neat people and sloppy people, how neat people are lazier, and how neat people are wasteful. Her qualities help explain to the readers why she thinks that her answer is true.
Asare and Danquah and Graham brought up some interesting points concerning the relationship between sedentary behavior and mental health. Asare and Danquah discovered that technological advances have reduced the participation in physical activities. Most teens would rather use their computers or watch television than go outside or be active. Screen devices have become addictive but also are being used more often for schoolwork, as Graham states. The demanding lifestyle of today’s high school and college students is another cause for high sedentary behavior. Books and assignments have been put online, where students are reliant on computers to do their schoolwork. This also puts more pressure on the students, leaving them with little time to be

What defines a home? Some might argue that it is simply a place of residence, but the truth is, a home holds much more meaning than that of a physical building. A home is a place where you feel truly comfortable and supported by those who surround you. It is the facilitator of a healthy mental state. A question arises, then, of how health is affected by the lack of a stable home. In his book Ragged Company, Richard Wagamese discusses the topic of homelessness through the development of his characters. Amelia Onesky, Timber, Double Dick, and Digger are all self-defined “rounders”; they are chronically, and almost professionally, homeless. They have learned to survive on the streets with next to nothing. When they
I am not a super messy person, but I don't necessarily keep my room clean all the time, either. Many a time I have opted to put away my clothes, clean out my binder and my backpack, make my lunch for the next day, and/or take a shower before I get to my homework. Doing all these activities takes a while, and I usually end up doing all of them on nights when I have a lot of homework, or if I have a test the next day. Any type of cleaning or household chore would work, though, such as scrubbing the shower, vacuuming, or dusting.
A clean home is something that should come easy for anyone. Most people would consider anyone with a dirty and cluttered home to be lazy or filthy, but many are unaware of the psychological disorder Hoarding, which affects about 5% of the population, both men and women (Neziroglu, n.d.). Hoarding is the act of one having difficulties separating from their belongings. Although many confuse hoarding with collecting, there is a significant difference from the two. Those who collect, gather a specific product as a hobby or a profession, but those with a Hoarding disorder keep items without a notable worth and it accumulates in areas that were previously used for living. It is believed that hoarding is caused by a deficiency with a person’s information processing or led by a cognitive disorder, or a disturbing emotional shock (“The Hoarding Project”, 2016

It was only 50 years ago that we began to have wonderful labor-saving devices to help accomplish all the tasks that collectively constituted the perfect home environment. Sometimes it has the effect of removing all the reasons that everything cannot be done all the time and so results in more work rather than less, but few of us can imagine living without washing machines, vacuum cleaners or dishwashers—or electricity, for that matter.
More and more women work outside and inside the home. The double demands shouldered by these women pose a threat to their physical health. Whether you are an overworked housewife or an exhausted working mother the chances are that you are always one step behind your schedule. No matter how hard women worked, they never ended up with clean homes. Housewives in these miserable circumstances often became hysterical cleaners. They wore their lives away in an endless round of scouring, scrubbing, and polishing. The increased strain in working women comes from the reality that they carry most of the child-rearing and household responsibilities. According to social trends (1996), women always or usually do the washing in 79 percent of cases and decide the menu 59 percent of the time. Picking up the children at school or doing grocery shopping are just a few of the many typical household-tasks a woman takes on every day.
As I was always told, it is better to live on your own then it is with a roommate. These are reasons why.one. When you are living, alone you have the responsibility to take care of everything and not have to worry about other people getting in your way. Living on your own offers a great deal of freedom to act how you want and live the way you want. If you want to lie on the couch for days on end, watching there is no one there to complain about your behavior. You can listen to your music as loud as you can want or any kind of music for that matter because you do not have anyone nagging about what you are doing.
The significance of chores in the household is important in building the character of our youth. When children participate in the chores of the house they can learn more than how to wash a plate or how to separate the recycling; children can learn to be independent and responsible and develop a proper work ethic that can benefit them throughout their lives. Physical activity is another benefit that children can receive by participating in chores; physical activity can reduce the risk of mental and physical disease. Children who do not do chores may also be independent, responsible, be appreciative of hard work, and have a reduced risk of mental and physical illnesses, but children who do participate in chores are more likely to experience
