From a home standpoint, as a parent I would expect my child to be able to set the table and clear it all on their own by age 10. My daughter is almost 3 and it’s really important to me that she clears her own plate, bowl, spoon and fork after a meal. She knows exactly where the sink is, and she has two legs of her own, I like to remind her. Together, we unload the dishwasher (cautiously) each morning.
