不定项选择题 75 years—that’s how long it took to conduct the Harvard Grant Study that revealed the state of success and happiness depends on 2 things: love and work ethic. And if it’s more or less obvious with love, the idea that children doing chores are more likely to succeed in the future is surely news.
According to Julie Lythcott-Haims, the author of How to Raise an Adult and the former dean of freshmen at Stanford University, chores help a person develop a certain attitude which can lead to them taking charge when there’s help needed.
This quality will be useful in group projects at school, displaying teamwork with colleagues, as well as having a generally good attitude when doing work. Those who've learned to take the initiative since childhood are more likely to be leaders.
When a kid sees that his/her actions lead to a certain outcome and realizes this "act-effect" connection, it opens a door to a whole network of other activities like thinking, coping, planning, deciding trying, failing and succeeding. It gives the kid more space to experience life in general. And doing chores gives them more control over another (very significant) area of their life.
Chores are a big part of everyday life which is impossible to avoid. And shielding your child from household duties and building a dependent pattern of behavior does more damage in the end. More or less independent living will cause a certain dissonance and definite stress for a child who gets used to the fact that a certain part of their life is done without their participation or effort.
As Julie Lythcott-Haims mentioned, we as parents should not put all the effort into our kids' good grades and thick resume, but rather on forming a certain set of habits, skills and a mindset in general—this will help them way more in life than good grades ever will. This includes, for example, the ability to schedule a day, prioritize urgent and important tasks, and to not put things off.
Lythcott-Haims says that by asking one's kids to help with washing the dishes, taking out the garbage, and doing laundry. We help them to come to the realization: “Messes don’t clean themselves.” And that it’s not just about “me” and “my needs” at the moment, but rather, it’s seeing the whole picture.
When we intentionally isolate children from chores. We don’t allow them to develop certain skills needed not only in school or at work, but in life in general, otherwise known as work ethic. Make a job chart for responsibilities like washing the dishes, watering the plants, taking out the garbage, vacuuming, and feeding animals. This experience will give your child a positive feeling of being productive.
