Exactly. My kids had to do chores starting very young - pick up toys for example. As they got older they still had chores to do that were unpaid. They got an allowance or payment for more complex chores as they got older. Then they all had to get part time jobs at 16 or 17 to learn about work, earning money, saving money, cost of living. Had to pay for some things they wanted out of their earned money. We were not perfect but by the time we got to our third child he paid for his own college, cars, gas, entertainment and saves like crazy.
Too many kids do nothing today. Not held responsible for anything.
When my som turned 13 (1983) I took him out for a special dinner and told him he, as a teen would be considered an adult and that he should behave as such. (I’m his Mom.) The following year I moved to adjoining state (his dad and I had joint custody). His “dad” did everything possible to make sure I did not see him. But, I persevered. It was a rough few years. He turned into a great husband and father...and worked hard too. Now Oper. Mgr of $24 million construction company.
