Chores are usually monotomous tasks but often later on in life people perform these tasks habitually. Some people even embrace these tasks like mowing the lawn. I've recently been pondering on if I somehow have a kid if i'll make them do my taxes to make them more financially literate. What are some other important skills that can be simplified for children for usability later on in life?
Definitely starting with basic stuff like laundry, washing dishes, vacuuming/mopping, etc. it’s embarrassing how many people make it to college age and don’t know how to do some of this s***.
idk if it counts as a chore but how to grow fruits and vegetables word to @dedication
Maybe when they're like ~8 have them start taking out the trash. Once they're a little order, make a weekly chore chart with stuff like dusting, loading the dishwasher, loading the washing machine, sweeping a room, etc. And then however many chores they did for the week = allowance for the week
I'm definitely making my kids mow the lawn, f--k that s--t!
I was mowing the yard at 10, a kid can definitely do that lmao
hand washing dishes that cant go in dish washer, loading dish washer, taking out trash.
if i have a yard of sorts, helping me with A LOT of yard work lol.
this the one area im prob a grouch in cause i had to do a ton of chores as a young lad lol.
All of them, cuz I ain't doing them anymore
Jk, who knows, I never had chores growing up and I'm well adjusted
Hot take but I think giving kids unnecessary workload that you end up doing better anyways is stupid
I am talking about ages like 8-15. After that you would wanna raise your kids so that they want to do the work what they can without you forcing them.
