My son Jack (15) is a late night eater. He will go into the kitchen around midnight make food and leave the kitchen a mess. It’s a problem we thought we got him to clean up by now. It’s awful to wake up and the kitchen is a mess. I hate it. He has plenty of quick food but wants a hot meal so he is making spaghetti at midnight. I don’t get it

I went out for a work function and when I came back at 2 am the kitchen was a mess. He won’t clean up after himself so I woke him up and had him clean the kitchen and do the dishes. He came back form school and we got in an argument about him being tired and how I can do the dishes if it bothers me.

My husband thinks I am a jerk also and I don’t know at this point. Is it seriously that hard to clean up after yourself.
