[QUOTE="Lugo420, post: 1252924, member: 16907"] Please don't pay your kid to do what you do for free. I made this mistake when my step-kids were younger (10 & 14) and now they won't do anything unless money is involved. My biological son (11 now) helps my wife and I with all chores without being asked and doesn't expect anything for it. The other two will sit in front of that nice warm stove and watch me or wife bring wood in and not even offer to help. Same goes for all the other work around the house. And yes arse whoopings were a part of their discipline until somebody at school told them I couldn't do that and CPS was called. The case was dismissed but now they know they're pretty much untouchable. [/QUOTE]
