Teenager : Should you assign household chores differently in a blended family

Question

My wife and I are having a serious disagreement and it is causing us a lot of difficulty. We have a blended family of 2 girls (her daughters from a previous marriage)and my son. We are of opposite opinions on the chore list. My son suggested we have a chore list because he felt like he wanted to work independently. My wife is adamant that he do his chore list but during the summer when he is gone there is no chore list. This makes me feel like the situation is unfair. She also feels like he should take on more like mowing the yard. The girls should not have extra chores. How can we resolve this?
