[quote=Anonymous]I give my 13 yo a chore list every morning (he earns an allowance). If I made him do it all at once he would melt down. I allow him to look it over and decide how much he will do at any given time and when he will start. Occasionally I have to prompt him to get started or notify him if certain task have to get done soon (unloading the dishwasher so dirty dishes can be put in). He's motivated by the earned reward but I feel it helps him manage his workload, which I hope translates over to other life skills.[/quote]
