Name: Jessica Country: India Comment: Very true.... my brother who is now 24, does everything in the house, including cooking, washing clothes and dishes, ironing, for everyone ~ as and when required... all because he (as well as me :)) was taught o pitch since a very young age Name: shweta Country: India Comment: well..i agree with this article completely..my son is just 15 months and he helps me in whatever ways he can.he's too young to do things the adult way.but he tries .he picks his shoes and puts them on the rack.tries to fold his own sheets...cleans the bed....and picks up nething he finds on the floor and puts it on the table.its really wonderful to see him.hope he remains like this when he grows up too Name: sumathi Country: India Comment: I have tried all these ,but it doesn't work well with my son. He is 9 years old, and refuses to do even the simplest of jobs. My daughter who is younger, is more co-operative .

Name: Loly Country: puerto rico Comment: I have 2 daughters 11 and 7 and a 6 yr old son, they help me everyday, they do their bed every morning before going to school, during the week every other day girls wash dishes, they help me prepare dinner, set the table, on thursdays they separate their dirty clothes, so does my son, he takes the garbage out, when we go food shopping they help around the store and help me unload bags in the van and at home, Im very happy my kids are very helpful, this helps all of us and this way we have time to watch a nice movie or play a board game together. They also help me rake and clean outside. We wash the car together, is fun for everyone. On the weekends we sleep late, go out for dinner or go the park. They are happy of helping me and im very proud of them! :-) Name: REBECCA Country: egypt Comment: THIS IS VERY BAD Name: Chandra Country: USA Comment: I was very fortunate as well Seema for when i was raising my son i had two older teenage step daughters who pitched in and helped out with everything too. When the baby was just days old, i taught both the girls how to fold, pin, and change his diapers, prepare baby formula, and bath him. The girls were even great about taking the baby out in the stroller for walks. Name: Seema Country: Canada Comment: Whenever my 11 year old neice visits me she's a great help with the babies. When my youngest was born, my neice always would ask me if she could change his diapers. She was only around 8 years of age at the time, a little too young to deal with sharp diaper pins so rather than say no, i instead would allow her to pull off the baby's rubber pants for me while i readied a fresh diaper. She was also always willing and ready to fetch me clean rubber pants and diapers, baby wash cloths, and anything else i needed throughout the day. Now at 11 years of age, my neice is old enough to change diapers on her own and she often offers willingly. I must confess, she's a super mothers helper! Name: djl Country: Hongkong Comment: my daughter is 8 years old , she helps me sometimes to unload the dish washer & makes some yummy sandwiches.... Name: Lorna Country: Other Comment: My son is two years old and he likes to take my hand bag in when I come home from work in the evenings.

I believe in giving little chores for the kids just to give them some responsiblity. I make a chore chart and assign small chores like folding the laundry,arranging the shoe rack,dusting etc.I make pretty printouts and put it on the fridge magnets and ask them to sign once they have finished the work.

She likes to water the plants and is very possesive about her toys. She will always keep them in place after playing with them.
