much less and even less

I don't know if you can utilize much less or even less in the examples.
Could a teacher explain?

Don't joke about x with her and even/much less with her mother. Her mom will not take it well.
She can’t even iron her own clothes, much/even less cooking her own food.
I never wanted to join the army, even/much less now that you've described how things work in the army.

Thanks
