Farm Chores Debate - Rockwood, TN

Grew up on a farm. Learned valuable lessons.
Teaches respect, honesty, hard work, patience ,dedication.

yes i say put them to work slopping hogs, pickink beans and digging tomatos.

Responsibility is something kids don't have no and days they get away with murder and do as they please and look how they end up!

no- kids r and will be how parents/gaurdians raise them. no matter the situtation kids will react and respond to what is being taught through words/actions/truths. I do not now nor do expect to encounter problems involving respect,responsiblity,accounta blity w my kids-and they r elementary age to young adult- I have 3. I am divorced & the primary/singular parent/adult/authority/model in their lives. There are no parent day off's or nite outs in my home, but evryone always tells me how polite & well behaved the kids are. They are normal kids that have been leveld with honestly about everything 'we' have been thru as a family & I do not 'do as I say not as I do'.
Farms are swell, but anymore they take almost as much to run as they yeild.Yes,I come frm large scale farm people in NC also :) chores & responsiblities can only teach kids as much worth as the person tooling out the duties....
