[quote=Anonymous]We didn't have much. Our rooms had to be clean by Sunday night to get our allowance for the week, but that was about it. Our "job" was academics, sports, ECs, and we did them well. Both of us went to college and learned to do laundry the first week in the dorms. Cooking was learned in our first apartment. It's not rocket science. I think kids need responsibilities, but it doesn't need to be in the form of chores. Homework, volunteering, work, practicing piano, getting themselves to sports practice on time...all teach following through on a committment.[/quote]
