[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] She is organized, kids are not entitled brats, she knows that complaining does no good and does what needs to be done. I know this because my mother was a military wife with five children. No brats. No picky eaters. We all had assigned chores that changed every month. Boys did kitchen duty and girls did yard work. We also knew that complaining was wasted energy. By the time we were ten we could do our own laundry.[/quote] Yes! AND, having survived a couple of deployments myself - not to mention the usual frequent absences and unpredictable schedule that is normal non-deployment military life-- the kids really step up when they need to.
