Children and chores
February 15th, 2008
When it comes to kids and chores, many parents have low expectations. They would say:
“My children are too young to do chores,”
or
“I don’t want to rob them of their childhood by making them work.”
Others would rather avoid conflict:
“They protest and resist when I do assign chores, and it’s easier to just do the job myself.”
Can you relate?
It’s important to teach children responsibility, self-discipline and character through work. In fact, when children start to show interest to help and want to do things on their own when they are about 2 1/2 years old, we should bank on the eagerness to start the training instead of discouraging him.
