[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make them do chores as soon as they are able!! Yes, it is easier at times to do them yourself vs. arguing w/them about it. But teaching them self-sufficiency is extremely important. It will also teach them full responsibility as well. Learning to maintain their living space, wash their own clothes + prepare their own meals on occasion are valuable tools that will definitely set them up for life. [/quote]This pp is so right. I fell down on this because as the kid got older and was capable of doing the chore it was just easier to keep doing it myself. But the point is that the kid doing the chore is about their learning good work habits, not about making your life easier.[/quote]
