[quote=Anonymous]My 13 year old stepson does not know how to cut his own meat, work a microwave properly, or do many, MANY simple household tasks. He lives with his mother and grandparents and they cater to him. I worry for him when he goes to college and cannot fend for himself because he was never expected to lift so much as a finger at home. Chores are not for manual labor, they are for teaching your kids how to care for themselves when they no longer live with mommy and daddy. [/quote]
