I look at it as a chore- to make my daughter do since we need to give her chores. And she doesn’t like to do it, so it’s a chore for her.
Don’t worry, there is still time. My sister hated loading the dishwasher, always dating girls and whatnot. But then in college she came to appreciate the dishwasher and now she is married with a kid!
I grew up poor. My chore was dishes, for a family of 5. I was also diagnosed with ADHD but not properly managed. And often I was punished with “wash every dish in the house”.
All that to say I spent a lot of time in the kitchen either hating washing dishes or procrastinating doing the dishes and hating my life because I couldn’t go do something else.
Then in class one day our teacher asked the class what everyone’s least favorite chore was, and one girl in the class said she hated unloading the dishwasher. The absolute gall.
Hell I still do them by hand… Almost 40 years old and I live in a garage without a clothes dryer or a dishwasher and my fridge/freezer is essentially “babies first refrigerator” size. I can’t even fit a regular tub of ice cream in my freezer lol
