More on chores: They can be fantastic parenting tools! If a child causes you extra work, to be late, or otherwise drains your energy they can do one of your chores for you, to pay you back. If one sibling wrongs another, amends can be made with an apology and the offending child doing one of the other childs chores. Children who are unhappy with their chore-list can feel free (with your permission) to swap duties with a sibling - imagine the negotiation skills to be learned! Chores that are above and beyond the normal daily housework can be used to pay for an extra treat at the store or to earn money. Above and beyond everything, however, chores help a child feel he/she is an important member of the family and to learn life skills.
