[QUOTE="Confused, post: 659016, member: 18100"] Interesting! I personally believe in teaching the most important, respect, love , education, decision making for themselves on certain things and as they got older,( as we got older we didnt have our own choice it was mainly rules to follow even as adults) how to handle issues, overall life skills, and yes, simple basic things to keep a house running! And knowing me Im leaving things out! So I will speak for my childhood as we basically had to learn what I mentioned( of course as we got older we were told what career to take and , ultimatums etc) We had to have the house cleaned( not laundry - was taught but not demanded of us) but had to dust, vacuum, cook, dishes, mop, yard work( only raking,watering),clean bathrooms, etc and any animals was pure our responsibility if ours. Of course education was important. So many families do raise their kids differently, its amazing to see the differences. Good or bad. [/QUOTE]
