[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]13 and no responsibilities except to take care of himself? I think it is a mistake. Treat him like a guest, and he will act like one. Mine's 11 and does laundry, helps with cleaning and yard work. No set chores, but an obligation to do what I ask with a reasonable horizon. Raking leaves is a silly punishment because he should be raking leaves anyway. Don't treat normal home maintenance as a punishment. [/quote] I do not agree. I did not have children to put them to work and perform manual labor. You do not have to treat your 13 year old like guest, but we should still be treating them like children because that is what they are.[/quote]
