16-year-old boy says only failed men’ do chores so his divorced parents taught him a lesson.

The dad and son are in Germany and live together during the school week and the son lives with his mother on weekends.

Father says he will get a fixed chore schedule when he returns, whether he likes it or not.

He asked a group of people on Reddit if he had done the right thing.

"This is one of the best examples of cohesive co-parenting I’ve heard of," one commenter wrote.

The parents were right to team up because their son’s attitude is a massive self-inflicted wound.

It will affect his future relationships and make him incompetent because he doesn’t know how to care for himself.
