There is much benefit to train a child to do chores while he/she is still young. Include them into your daily routine, according to their ages and abilities. Give them room to make mistakes (and they will) and be gracious to the result. Be prepared that you might have to redo whatever they were told to do. In a couple of years you will have a good helper. And in a couple more years you will have a capable, responsible and hardworking young man or lady. I am looking forward to that day.
