[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 236788, member: 6546"] Hi Shari-- Unfortunately, difficult child wants nothing to do with the horses (she likes the cats, but they hide from her)...and her questions about the feed seemed more like she was just trying to get attention. Her favorite thing about the farm is riding on the tractor...so when she is doing that she is having a good time, but obviously, that can't be every minute we are there. And truly, if she doesn't want to help out--that's OK with me. I have explained that if she doesn't want to do any farm chores, she can just sit and wait until I finish. We leave whenever everything is done. If she were willing to help, many of the chores go so much faster (like the water buckets). If she's not willing--fine. But she can't NOT help, and then get mad at me because it is not going as fast. :frowny: [/QUOTE]
