WATCH: Nine-year-old's detailed cleaning routine will put you to shame
Updated | By Stacey & J Sbu
This 9-year-old cleans his "apartment" like a pro and we’re feeling a tad bit embarrassed…
Forget chore charts and nagging reminders, this hilarious TikTok video from @thesimsfamilytv shows us the ultimate parenting hack: raising a kid who can tackle cleaning like a champ.
The video features a spunky 9-year-old boy and his cleaning routine, and the mom's voiceover was equally funny and inspiring.
From making his bed with military-like precision to scrubbing the bathroom down (yes, you read that right!), this little man is a cleaning machine.
But here's the twist: this "apartment" he's cleaning is actually his bedroom, cleverly decorated to maximise space and include a lounge area.
The playful reference just adds to the charm of the video. What truly shines through, is the message from his mom: "One thing about me, I'm not raising a man that a woman would have to get with and re-raise."
Check out some of the comments under the clip:

“He is spoiled but in a good way hahaha.”
@Jodzie commented:
“I love this kind of parenthood, let him know he won’t be at home forever.”
@Lioness wrote:
“I wish my parents had made me do this, I think I learned too late.”
By instilling these valuable life skills early on, she's setting him up for success (and a sparkling clean apartment... well, room).
