My 9 year old empties the dishwasher every day and sorts laundry. 4 year old puts dishes on the counter after dinner. 22 month old is chore free for now. I have friends with two 12 year olds and a 9 year old who say "But our kids won't do chores." Really? They have an option? It is parents like you who are raising a generation of self-indulgent, lazy, entitled children. It frustrates me so much when parents let their children run the household!Live Simply Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10476167084070076646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7836922732890995523.post-24354918485624649342010-04-20T05:22:49.958-07:002010-04-20T05:22:49.958-07:00my kids have been helping since they were little. ...my kids have been helping since they were little. We are all part of a family, and we are all responsible for helping nurture each other. All my kids have their own jobs based on skill level. My little one takes down the recycling, the second oldest takes pride in cleaning the bathrooms, they all love to cook supper once in a while. They ALL fold the laundry together. And, yes, it does make my life easier, but it also teaches them that they are part of a team.HSaboMilnerhttp://hadassahsabo.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
