This, The Great Steem Rut is sure taking its toll on our household.
With Steem income through the floor, I have had to let go of the entire cleaning staff, along with faithful butler 'Cedric'. Very sad times indeed.
So we are getting 'back to basics' this week - reintroducing the age-old economic principle of 'Child Labour'.
Of course prying them away from the PS4 is never easy - but once they started on the back patio - they actually enjoyed themselves! Because children absolutely love to work!!
And it is not just the cleaning staff we are saving on. Gone are the Sunday roast lunches with seafood entrees... today it is back to simple Aussie Meat Pies with Tomato Sauce.
Look at this kid beaming would you. "No payment necessary Dad" he says. "Just keep a roof over my head and my belly filled with smiley face meat pies and I am one happy kid!"
This is #back2basics week at TEAM AUSTRALIA, and I say - get the children back to work! ;)
Haha if only kids actually appreciated what you do for them at the time. If yours do you're one lucky guy, but I know I'm much more thankful for what my parents did for me everyday that goes by.

No way any of my kids would say something like this mate - but just like you and me gniksivart - they will get it when they are 30+

Glad you liked SB. Like what you say in theory - get the kids working then go enjoy myself. In practice - the kids would be fighting within 2 minutes and nothing would get done. SK.

Instilling a good work ethic in the kids is one of the greatest gifts you can give them SK. They'll take it through their lives, instill in in their own kids, will never be dependant on the state and will carry themselves with pride.
You're a top bloke and a great dad.
