The child who does some jobs feels bigger, more grown up - and that is very important . Such self-reliance is very important or success in school. School is a child's work, school is a child's life. No one can go to school for a child. Or learn for a child.
Youngsters have to live their own lives.
So any pleasing experiences at home in being independent and in being responsible make a solid contribution to school success. These are the reasons why I urge you to be very glad whenever your boy or girl wants to pitch in. I urge you to go a step further, too. That's always a smart thing to do. Youngsters usually have ideas about jobs they would like to take on, once you open up the possibility to them.
