How do I convince my dad to help around the house?

Hello, so for most of my life my parents have had a very traditional dynamic in that my mom didn't work and did all the house work + outside work. But now my dad has had less work for a couple of months while my mom has re-entered the workforce as me and my siblings have moved out. But he just doesn't do anything outside of working (on his own project now). We barely got him to start doing some shopping lately. I don't see him cleaning, so I was thinking of getting him to help outside, we have a lot of field space that needs maintenance, but his back isn't amazing. So I am kind of stumped on how I can change their dynamic, because it's just stressing me and my siblings out anytime we are home. (We help out when we are there)

Thanks a bunch

I (22F) have recently gotten my bachelor and am currently in my first year of a two year master. And I have honestly not studied in the last three years... I feel so guilty about it but it seemed to always somehow work out for me. But now I am picking up courses that are very complicated and it's catching up with me. It's like I never learned how to study, I am feeling really down about it lately and don't really know where to start. It's gotten so bad that I have an exam tomorrow at 8AM and am here on Reddit instead.. So my hope is that for my next exam I can finally get my shit together and apply myself before I end up failing everything.

Any tips are really appreciated!
