Chores: Good for Kids, Good for You
A recent study showed that most adults did household chores when they were young. 1. Kids nowadays spend a good deal of their time on homework and after-school activities.
An expert said, “Parents today want their kids to spend time on things that can bring them respect. We have stopped doing the one thing that has proven to bring success. 2.”
One study found that young adults who began chores at ages 3 and 4 were more likely to succeed. Compared to no-chore kids, they had better family relations, did better in school, did better at work and were more self-confident.Personal happiness is said to come from strong relationships. It begins by learning to be kind and helpful at home.
If your kids say they have to skip chores to do homework, do not let them off the hook. 3. “What may seem like small messages at the moment,” an expert says, “add up to big messages over time.”
Here are some important ideas from experts：
4. Thank young children for being a “helper,” not just “helping”. It creates a positive identity.
Schedule chore time. Write down chores on a calendar that everyone can see (for example, posted in the kitchen).
Game it. Start small and have young children earn new “levels” of responsibilities, such as going from sorting clothes to earning the right to use the washing machine.
Keep allowances and chores separate. Do not make chores a business trade.
Do chores as shared tasks. 5.
Give chores a PR (public relations) boost. Do not tie chores to punishments. If you complain about doing the dishes,so will your children.
A. Watch your language.
B. That is doing household chores.
C. Instead of saying, “Do your chores,” say, “let’s do our chores.”
D. But the same study showed that most kids today do not do household chores.
E. You shouldn’t tell your child that grades are more important than caring about others
As a new teacher at Doull Elementary school in Denver, Kyle Schwartz thought of a simple way to know her third graders, most of whom came from poor families. She asked them to complete the note, “I wish my teacher knew..." and share something about themselves. Their honest answers gave the teacher a chance to understand her students’ difficulties.“I wish my teacher knew I have no pencils to do my homework,” wrote one child. “I wish my teacher knew sometimes my reading homework is not signed because my mom is not free a lot,” wrote another. Some showed hope for the future. “I wish my teacher knew that I warn to go to college.”
“Some notes are really heartbreaking.” Schwartz tells ABC News. “I care deeply about each of my students and I don’t want them to be poor forever.” She explains, “I hoped to know more about their lives and how I could better support them. So I decided to let them tell me what I needed to know. That was why I created the fill-in-the-blank exercise.”
_______ the third graders were allowed to answer anonymously （匿名地） , most wanted to include names. And some were even excited to read their notes out loud, like one shy girl who bravely said that she was lonely. “After she told the class, ‘I don’t have friends to play with me,’ I was worried about what they would do,” Schwartz tells Us Weekly. However,I felt encouraged to see how much support the other kids offered her. They invited her to play at break and sit with them at lunch. You see, children have an unusual ability to express empathy（同情） .”
“The results have been surprising,” says Schwartz. “It shows the importance of giving people a voice and really listening to them.”

"I have a real father to send a card to this time, "she told the newspaper last week. “But I still don’t have everything that goes with it—like the memories.” Her parents, Karl Beinfohr and Ingeborg Mueller, got married in Germany in the 1940s when World War II was on and a year later Marie was born—a daughter who grew up thinking her father, a German soldier, died in the war.
This year, Eastburn found and got in touch with relatives in Germany, hoping they could tell her about her father. One day, a letter arrived in her mailbox.
"All these years of quietness, "Beinfohr wrote, "I don' t know what you have lived through. The news that she had a father who lived an ocean away brought tears to Eastburn's eyes.
