House work

You know, kids grow up helping their parents around the house because they get payed, so if their mom asks them for a favor (not going to pay them) the kids will ask "How much will you pay me then?" and it's the parents fault because they taught them that if you do "house work" you will get payed for it. But what else? There is more to house work, it's not just about getting payed you know. It really depends on the parent, but my parents wanted me to help because they thought everyone should be involved because we all live in this house that is keeping us warm, healthy, and comforted. I started when I was about 6 and never wanted to, alot of people usually think money is "how the world goes round" but it's not. I used to not understand helping, when your that age, you think you own your parents, because they clothe you and feed you and keep you healthy and stuff like that, so you don't understand that your mother is your family member and you don't "own" her. Obviously I don't think I own my mom lol. I am starting again to do the dishes, pick up after my dogs, feed the rabbits and guinea pig and all that, not because I think "oh I'm gonna get payed for this so I'll do it!", because I actually WANT to. There is more meaning when you want to and think about how it will help the people in your home! When I HAD to do chores I never wanted to because I had to. Money doesn't make the world go round, you can't buy love, and you can't buy respect. I didn't start making money for a long time. I don't even make money now! I am not gonna go get a job at the age of 13, that's child labor! People are now looking for young kids to start working so they can pay them less, and that is wrong. If anyone wants me to get a job and MAKE MONEY, I am still not gonna do it. Anyway, that what just came on my mind XD I love my mom, and I love helping her! ♥
