Bored Panda reached out to parenting blogger Samantha Scroggin, the founder of Walking Outside in Slippers, for her advice on keeping the house clean and staying on top of chores when raising kids. "Keeping the house clean is a moving target in my experience. But for me personally, an at least somewhat clean house is tremendously important to my mental health," she said about the importance of keeping things neat. "A tidy house helps me feel more in control of my life, and able to handle the curveballs that often come our way as busy parents."

"If you enjoy placing a lot of importance on your home because it means a lot to you, then do that. If you only see it as a place to live and want to focus your attention on other things, you should do that. You can never impress or please everyone, no matter what you do. Just look at celebrities as an example. They have millions of people who love them and millions who hate them,” the expert said.
"The same applies to your home. You will never make it, furnish it or arrange it in a way where everyone loves you for it and wishes they had it. Some people will love it, others will like it and some will hate it. So, just enjoy doing what you want to do. That’s the only way you’ll truly be happy."
