[quote=Anonymous]Among the gifts we give our kids, including spending time with them and playing, is teaching them how to be grown up one day. They’re both important ways to spend time with kids. He needs to see this. To start, give him one job at a time. While he’s playing with the kids, say, “oh man this trash can is really full. Kids did you see that? It would mean SO much of you guys would work together to take it out & put the new bag in.” Repeat a few times each day. I would also explicitly have that conversation with him beforehand—that both things are important experiences to share with the kids—playing with them AND teaching them how to handle the chores. Have a short convo beforehand so when you do the trash can request, you can wink at him. He’ll get better at this the more clear you are. [/quote]
