That's how my mother "taught" us to do chores. "You're [insert age], you should know how to [insert age-inappropriate chore] by now!" Without having given us any instruction whatsoever. We were supposed to learn how to do things by osmosis or magic or the power of prayer or some bullshit, I don't know. She wasn't a homeschooler/unschooler, though--she was just crazy.
