Fact: Doing chores improves your child's chances for a happy
marriage and a good job. Many parents, rather than fighting
their children over chores, would rather do the chores
themselves. But Patricia Sprinkle makes a convincing and
entertaining case for why kids need chores. They need to
develop basic life skills such as cooking and cleaning. They
need to learn responsibility and the value of hard work. In
short, they need to learn how to become dependable, capable
adults. In Children Who Do Too Little, Sprinkle shows why
and how parents should teach their children household skills
and gives suggestions for making teaching easier. She
discusses: --Why we do it all for our children --Guidelines
for good family meetings --How to get kids to work
--Cleaning tips that make life easier --How to handle the
child's own room --Cleaning games to make work fun --The
pay-for-work vs. allowance debate Complete with a group
discussion guide. Children Who Do Too Little is a book every
parent will benefit from-and every child as well!
