Parenting Tip # 220
Much of the on-the-job training for the workplace needs to take place at home as children participate in simple chores and tasks. Try starting your children off with small tasks, like putting the silverware in its proper place after being washed, or dusting. As they grow older they can learn to do larger tasks, such as cleaning the kitchen, taking out the trash, and washing the family car.Parenting Today's Adolescent: Helping Your Child Avoid the Traps of the Preteen and Teen Years Copyright 1998 by Dennis and Barbara Rainey.
