Should parents ask their children to do chores? Some believe that children should not do chores. They think that children are too young to cook or clean for themselves or their parents. But many people believe that children can learn a lot from doing chores. Parents should help children learn to do the housework that they will have to do when they live on their own.
Most experts agree. However, the chores should suit(适合) children. Parents shouldn’t, of course, ask a schoolboy to cook when he is doing his homework. If the child has activities after school, the time left to do chores may be short.
Maybe more chores on weekends can be helpful. When a child does what his parents ask him to do happily, he will probably have the feeling of growing up. Chores can be useful. They are a teaching tool(工具). Parents use the tool to teach children so that they can care for themselves someday. And please make sure that parents also, do chores. If parents don’t keep a clean house, children won’t find any reason to do chores.Why do some parents think it’s not necessary for children to do chores?
