your kids; the next generation

[Retz]

Naging responsible parenthood na

[shadow]

I don't care, I will continue to give all the comfort in life.

Them learning household chores would make them successful in life? I don't think so

Really? If war breakouts now or famine or other unforeseen events them learning those menial chores would be able to save their asses?

I guess household chores is one of the many ways a child is taught the value of discipline and responsibility.

I have an officemate before that had a problem with authority. Never kasi nauutusan. May cousin din ako na ganyan, sa sobrang sheltered and spoiled, walang authority figure, kahit parents niya hindi siya ma control, ayaw mag work

the boy/girl scouts are taught good values in life.
Boy Scout Oath, Law and Motto

Yeah, Jojo Binay is a boy scout and he has very good values. Values that were taught to his children that's why they will be like him.

with all of life's failures and successes, we still need people who failed, these are the people we hire as drivers, maids, gardeners, janitors and yaya. not everybody can be successful. somebody has to do the menial jobs

Wow, naging driver, maid, janitor lang e failure na?

i once read a thread about a new college grad who is starting to work that didnt know basic things in life, kakalipat lang nya ang dorm and created a thread asking people how to use a washing machine. ang ginagawa nya eh inuuwi sa kanila yung mga maruming damit at kumukuha ng bago.

medyo gulat lang ako nung nabasa ko iyon, i came from a poor family kaya alam ko basic things in life.

but i admit i might be doing the same to my kids, hatid sundo ng school bus/kotse ang mga anak ko, pupunta sa mall nakakotse. bisita sa kamag-anak kotse. im afraid im not teaching them basic street skills. at their age dati marunong na kong sumakay ng jeep, marunong na kong tumawid. nakakapunta ako sa malayong lugar na akong magisa. now im not sure if my kids can reach home kung maiwan sila sa mall na nagiisa.

i think the problem here is the lack of opportunity to teach them. both parents busy with their work, tapos laging may machine or katulong na sasalo sa mga gawain.

talk about values

here's this guy telling us about values and he calls low income people failures. people who try to make an honest living

so money is THE gauge

if low income people are failures then drug lords and wealthy corrupt politicians are successful right?

[uls]

rich countries hire people from poor countries to do work their citizens won't do coz the jobs are too dangerous or menial or degrading

can we call those who accept those jobs failures?

we call them OFWs and they've kept the Phil. economy alive for the past decades

I agree with others na wala sa chores and scout training would define discipline. Also no one has the right to say how to bring up their children. pampered or strict, kanya kanyang style.

With survival and other things, people will learn how to do things if they have to. well that's just my opinion.
