Some children have lots of chores to do; others have hardly any at all. We know that doing chores can build a sense of responsibility and belonging. No one would argue that certain tasks are reasonable to expect a young child to do: helping to set and clear the table, keeping their belongings in order, and making their beds. Depending on the child's age, maturity, and ability, some children are asked to do the laundry, clean the bathroom, do the yard work, and wash the car. On a farm, there are plenty of barnyard and field tasks that need to be done, with children expected to help.
