I'd wager that a good majority of household disputes are spurred by the issue of cleaning. Someone isn't cleaning enough, someone isn't pitching in, someone's work goes unappreciated, or someone microwaves fish in the middle of the night. Cleaning the house is a bigger job than it seems at first, especially if you're sharing the space with roommates or family. Things get dirty quickly, and they stay dirty unless you're on top of it.

And it seems like a rule of the universe that there is always a clean one and a messy one. It's one of those opposites attract theorems. Where there is a Felix, there must be an Oscar. And it takes a lot of patience to work through it. So naturally, conflict arises. That's exactly what happened to one blended family caught in an unfortunate situation. What ensued were some pretty nasty words and a lot of family drama. Read on for the details.
