Teach Your Kids to Work, Part V
How many times should you beat a child for refusing to do chores before you give up on them and kick them out to the barn? I recommend one spank for every year of age. If you have a 27 year old mooch living on your sofa he is going to have one sore bottom. Maybe by that point you have realized the beatings aren't working and you should try something else.
Before its too late, try reading my articles at GNMParents on teaching your children to work. This series is turning out to be a lot longer than I thought it would be. I guess I have a lot to say! Read my latest installment, "If Momma's working, everyone's working!"

How is it that you manage to make me giggle and make me think, all in one go?
Beautiful photoes! I've been following your tips!
I just happened upon your blog and LOVE it! This totally cracked me up- thank you for making me laugh this morning!
My 8 year old made dinner the other night! I completely believe in teaching them as they go along. I learned the hard way! It gives my kids a sense of belonging and pride in their accomplishments and abilities.
I'm so glad you commented on my site so that I could find your blog! I am definately going to go read all the parts of this series.
(BTW, the picture of the german pancake looks so yummy!)
My girls LOVE to cook right along with me. We have the problem of too many cooks in the kitchen so they have to take turns by week. They have to plan the menu, shop with Mom, cook and then clean up messes they made along the way.
Every part of your Teach Your Kids to Work series has been great!
