Question Translation help

I want to say "My parents don't make me do many chores" in spanish.

I am not very confident that "Mis padres no hacen que hace muchas quehaceres" is the best way.

I agree with Ciel. I like more how "mis padres no me obligan a hacer muchos quehaceres" sounds though.

Buenas,

¿es que a nadie le suena mal ese "hacer hacer"?

¿Soy el único que ve que eso es una cacofonía absurda?

Saludos,

Utgi

Utgi,

Está bien lo que señalás. No lo utilizaría en algo escrito. Pero creo que en el lenguaje oral es mas usual. Por eso ofrecí las dos opciones.
