My personal opinion is that all children should be taught the ethics of work -- after all, the world owes no one a living! There were five of us when I was a child. From the oldest to the youngest, we all had things we had to do. There were lots of times when my mother was unable to do anything due to poor health, and I had to do the cooking. The first biscuits I made could be classified as lethal weapons they were so tough! LOL! Try doing laundry for 8 in the old wringer washer and rinse tubs! When I say this, I don't regret it! I think it prepared me for life in general!
