I'd sooner believe her interpretation of her chores than his. Speaking as someone who was born in the south I've never met a hick that didn't treat their child as free slave labor. Not trying to stereotype but those are just my experiences over a fairly respectable sample size.
So yeah her whining was probably justified, and even if it wasn't-- well, yeah, over-exaggeration from Cletus there.
