Many parents make their children do chores around the house. For some families,teaching children what to do and how to do chores is easy. For other families,asking children to do some housework can be a very big problem.
It is a good idea for parents to tell their children that all family members must work together to make the house clean,and each member must do his or her part of the work. This can be done by starting a program of chores when children are young.
Doing chores is good for children — even very young ones. On the one hand,doing some chores teaches children many important skills. For example,children can learn how to work together with others. On the other hand,doing chores can teach children to take care of themselves. In short,the useful skills they learn by doing chores will benefit them in their life.
