[quote=Anonymous]Intensive parenting doesn’t attach much importance to chores. The goal is to cultivate the child so they can attend as an elite a college as possible and then make money. I’ve got a kid with some challenges. He’s not getting a 4.0 GPA. I’d be happy with a 3.0! Chore are another way that he can learn skills, contribute to the household and cultivate independence. For that reason, I find them incredibly valuable. We’re also middle class and overloaded as we both work. My kids need to help and it is good for them. I don’t do what my mother did, which is criticizing whatever chores are requested. [/quote]
