My response is my own responsibility.

I am not pleased when someone, upon hearing that my panic attack was triggered by the subject them and chores, tells me in an angry/offended tone of voice that they are not responsible for my reaction.

Neither am I pleased when they tell me that holding a family meeting tonight will not be good for our overworked, overstressed roommate.

I announced that I will begin job-hunting.

No, they are not responsible for your reaction.

They're responsible for being a lazy sod who apparently thinks the Cleaning Fairies come by and miraculously make all shiny.

Part of adulthood is recognizing that days off are the days you have time to catch up on all the crap you didn't have time for on workdays. Thinking days off = uninterrupted idle time ought to end at high school, IMHO. It's pretty childish. -Spoken as someone long past that...

You put it better than I could have. I agree.
