Farm Chores Debate - Waynesboro, TN

Are you kidding me?????
I was raised on a farm. It teaches young'uns the meaning, value, and responsibility of work, life, and family structure. All healthy American rural values on which this country was built on.

parents farm...parents rules

When you live on a farm there are alot of things that have to be done in order to food on the table and money in the bank. and when your kids are big enough to handle the smaller choirs there is not anything wrong with it. As the kids get bigger they get bigger things to learn and do. Most do an excellent job! And take pride in whAt they do. This is how life is on our farm. It's just stuff thathas to get done for everyones sake. Nothing wrong with raising them to know that it's not gonna get done by sitting on the porch and do nothing not to
Mention the pride you and your family have because you have done this as a family and taught the younger ones some life changing events in case something happened then the younger ones will know what to do. Even after we r gone.

You think we have to regulate every damn thing ??

"knewIT"

We have raised our kids on a farm, and our seven year old knows how to do almost as much as an adult. The farm is hard work but also a way to hold the family together. We started ours off on the farm as young as three and four just as the tag along to learn...we made it into a family thing. The youngest loved to bottle feed the baby calves. Some work gets harder but letting your kids know the why's and hows will only benefit them if bad things start happening to our country. Such as the gardens. Most teenagers this day do not know the first thing about gardening.. that is sad. But I totally believe its and experience every child should endure, with family or friends. Its a good educational work field...So if you dont have a farm. Find one let your children just go watch and hang around. Save them for the hard times you may not be alive to show them when they really need it.

It is a good thing

It all boils down to this no farm= no food no food= yer ass will starve to death. If you don't pass knowledge on all will be forgotten. Somebody has got to do it!
