How Old Should Your Kids Be When They Start Chores?
Sometimes I wish that being a parent came with a handbook. I want to make sure that my son becomes a good person but I also want him to enjoy his childhood. The household debate lately has been if he should start doing chores or not.
Anyone who knows me knows that I love taking care of my son. And yes, he is spoiled rotten. But he does have good manners. He doesn't talk back and if I ask him to do something, he usually does it without complaints.
He is 4 years old and his dad thinks it's time for him to start doing chores. I disagree. I think there will be plenty of time for him to throw out the trash or clean his room. For now I want him to enjoy being 4. I want him to play and laugh and just have fun.
I do understand the importance of having responsibilities, but he's four! Is there a certain age that kids need to begin this task? I'm not sure. For now I will continue to let him be 4 and chores and responsibilities will come later.
