[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]According to your logic, children shouldn’t do any chores. If my spouse and I buy a house, they shouldn’t have to do chores because they didn’t buy the house. If we buy a car, they don’t have to clean it because they didn’t buy it. If we buy their clothes, they don’t have to do laundry. Are we forcing these tasks on them too because we aren’t paying them? How do they differ from babysitting? You can call babysitting whatever you like, but there’s nothing wrong with asking older siblings to help with taking care of the younger ones as long as they’re not substituting for the parents. It’s a life skill. It teaches empathy, child rearing, and responsibility. So many new parents struggle to take of children because they have no previous experience. [/quote]

A PP already explained this.

P.s.: do your younger children have EXTRA chores too. Some of you seem obsessed with “preparing” first born kids only.[/quote]

Me again. “Do your younger children have EXTRA chores too ???” [/quote]

You’re a little obsessed. [/quote]
