Survival Living
Parents often downgrade the ongoing requirements of civilized living to chores for one of two reasons, 1) the tasks in and of themselves are not rocket science and children can usually do them, and/or 2) the adults do get tired of doing the same things over and over and want some relief. Both are woefully inadequate reasons for minimizing the immensity and value such tasks offer life.
Every individual in a family is crucial to God’s design of that family and every individual is completely responsible to master the basic living tasks that comprise civilized life’s work. The sooner any family member welcomes and takes on such living tasks as important elements of their own personal good life, the better everyone will be.
