My children are wonderful — smart and cute and generally delightful. However it took me years to work out how to encourage them to help with the household chores.
I wrote out lists of chores and let my children choose. I tried to make chores to be games. I showed my children what happened if nobody did chores. And yes, the chores got done and we lived in a clean and tidy house. But my children worked only because I asked them to do it. I knew there must be a better way, but for a long time, I was too busy and tired to discover it. Then one day I thought about how I reacted when my children asked me for help. «Can you help me with this please, mum?» one of them would say. Quite often that minute turned into hours.
One day I decided to try something new. «Can you help me with this please, mum?» asked Charlotte. «Of course I can,» I replied, putting down my own work immediately. I remembered to smile at the same time. It wasn't easy at first. But it's a pleasure doing things for those we love. Regularly throughout the day, Gemma-Rose comes to me and asks, «Can I do anything for you, mum?» She makes me a cup of coffee. She arranges some flowers in a vase and places them in my bedroom. «We like helping you, mum.» Children who like to help? And I have discovered I like to help them, too, especially when it's not expected.
