Do Your Children Have Chores

[ghunter]

Well, back in the days, my kids had chores and was not paid, hey did get an weekly allowance and was rewarded for bringing home good grades, like A's and B's.  Today kids don't have chores they are paid to do house work, like cleaning their rooms and keeping it clean, but that's life.

well my children are all grown up now,,,,  when they were young they had to keep their bedrooms cleaned up. i didn't expect it to be spotless.  lol but it was their "job"   and they helped with dishes in the evening.  I wanted them to worry more their school work then worry about oh i have this job to do and that job to do .  When they got older and went out and found their own jobs ,,,   they were ready for it.   My son just retired from the army after 20  years.  my daughter went to college for 4 years and worked 2 jobs at the same time.  she didn't  have to work both jobs, she was still living at home, but she did.  in her 3 year she finally got a place of her own,,,  lol   she had saved up a lot of money,,,,  ( she did help with money for food while at home, i didn't charge her rent )

Yes my son has chores. He does not really complain either because he can earn towards the games he want.

I tried assigned a chore for my daughter. She was good doing it for a couple of days and then she lost interest. I will try again sometimes.
