I am blest with two sons -my first is 16 who is living with my parents and my second is 10 who is with us. Both of them are not fond of loitering around, all they do when not in school is to watch tv and play with the virtuals in the web.
My second child is geejay. Unlike his "kuya", he is so dependent to us.That is why, this summer we started teaching him of the household chores more so that we no longer have a househelp.
Just this morning, I was so glad having seen him washed the dishes. As a mother I am truly happy that he is now learning to outgrow his childhood laziness maybe realizing that there can be more things to consider in life than being idle in fron of the tv.
Sometimes, it is but our fault patents on how our kids grow up. With our love for them, we pampered them by not allowing them to do some tasks in the house. We pity them to do the legwork which is irrational because we are teaching them to be lazy and even worthless.
Yes, it is our duty as parents to teach them how to be responsible.
