Well the kid does supposedly have chores such as unloading the
dishwasher, trash, etc but is like pulling teeth to get him to do it
without having to remind him several times.

You gotta get her on board. Period. What self-respecting parent doesn’t believe
that a kid should participate in work around the house, i.e., chores? And I’m
not talking about the sh*t my Midwestern parents expected, like major work, but
something as simple as maybe loading the dishwasher after meals or taking out
the trash on a regular basis. Yeah, I had to make my bed, clean my bathroom and
do a number of other things on a daily or weekly basis, but it was expected.
Start out small. Not only that, but it can provide a sense of accomplishment
and ownership, not to mention help with self-esteem.
Self-entitlement is an ugly thing and near impossible to reverse. You’ll pay a
serious price for it in the long term.

I try to, but can't get him to do anything and if I try too hard, then my
spouse says I am too hard on him, so it is a no win situation.

That what kids are for, Kaleb. Free labor. Make the most of it while you can.
