[QUOTE="yukonjack, post: 3033575, member: 2939"] That's exactly what I said. A work ethic is developed as a result of the "child's" environment. That development starts very early in life. When children see you doing something they try to mimic it. You either encourage that or suppress it. My children are grown now so I thought that part of life was over. 2 1/2 years ago my now 5 1/2 year old granddaughter came to live with me. She's never seen me use a dishwasher even though I have one. We do them in the sink the old fashioned way. She does her share. No riding lawn mower on my 1 acre lot. Takes about 2 1/2 hours and now that she's tall enough she gets her push time in. Everyday she has chores to do and if I'm working on the trucks, house or fixing stuff she's right there trying to be involved. No iPad, no video games. Proverbs 22:6 “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” [/QUOTE]
