    he/she is big enough to clean his room (not very well) make his/her bed, wash some dishes, take out the trash, and feed the pets. Not all in the same day! This child is in training, so train him/her.Some children are more mature, they can handle more responsibility.


    This isn't to much, I did this and far more. I worked in Tobacco for an uncle. He was a salve driver. Yes, at 7.


    People have forgotten to give kids chores, they let the TV  baby sit. Every week my dad, retired Navy, made us read a book. We had to give him and oral report. It not only taught us to read, but love to read. This was a listed chore, he posted on the frig every week.
