Some people believe that children should assist with household chores when they are old enough. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this. Please provide specific reasons, details and examples to support your response.
Nowadays, many parents believe when children are old enough, they should assist in household chores, while many others think their little ones are too young to take on responsibilities like adults. With me, I support the first point of view because of three main reasons: it gives children opportunities to get used to family’s daily activities, learn to respect other people’s effort, and become more independent in their future lives.
First of all, children need to take part in daily household tasks to understand how things work. In fact, one of the most frequently sites causes of over-indulgent parents are doing too much for their children and not expecting enough from them. Not being taught essential skills of everyday living can limit children’s ability to function at age appropriate level. For instance, a three-year old girl has no idea how to wear her coat or even pour water by herself, or a teenager at his eighteenth go away for college can’t do his own laundry. In contrast, youngsters are completely capable to assist their parents in many chores; cooking is one example. They can help by cleaning ingredients, giving needed things or setting the dining table. Observing and direct participating in cooking, they learn how foods are made, and can cook simple dishes by themselves. Clearly, let children take part in household activities will cultivate their knowledge about the real life and help them build skills they will need as grown-ups.
Secondly, being shared household chores gives kids the opportunity to give back, value, and respect their parents and all they do for them. Some parents rarely require children to help because of many different reasons such as: they are so busy with all other demands from schoolwork, need to pursue extra-curricular sports or need to practice a new instrument… As a result, children deem that their academic qualifications, athletic skills or interest are most important. Intentionally or not, these kids become self-absorbed and mainly concern about themselves and their own needs. They do not naturally consider the needs and expectations of others, include their parents. Doing chores teaches kids how are caring, sharing and respect. For kids in the previous example, when they aware how hard and time-consuming cooking take their mothers, they can value the job and who did it. So, kids learn to respect every dish, never refuse eating them anymore and willingly help not only in cooking, but in other chores also.
Last but not least, I think each children should have his/her own contributions in household tasks because childhood is an important period to form a child’s character. When they can do something, even small tasks to help their parents, they will feel like being a vital part in the family and have duty to contribute more. In fact, learning to schedule time and be responsible in doing chores from early age help kids build “a lasting sense of mastery, responsibility and self-reliance”, achieve early success at school, and in career than those who didn’t or started them as teens, according to researches by Marty Rossmann, emeritus professor at the University of Minnesota. For example, when a preschooler is divided tasks like other members, she will feel having the same role and responsibility with her siblings or her parents. She have to throw the trash, tidy up her bedroom, gather and put away toys after playing by herself. By that, she learns how to be in charge of her own agenda, how to develop her own interests, skills, solutions and expertise, then she becomes more independent at her study and in her future life.
In conclusion, for all the reasons above, I strongly support that children should assist parents with suitable household chores as soon as they are old enough. Because of being small, children can do small tasks, but after all, they gain a lot of necessary knowledge and skills to prepare for an adult’s life, three of which are: awareness about the real world, how to respect other people, and live independently by their own.
