Our family had initiated a “job-jar” of weekly chores to spread out the housekeeping duties. My wife, who works, had strongly suggested that we all pitch in for the good of the family. Our two sons (aged 7 and 10) agreed and we selected a list of 20 jobs to be completed weekly. These jobs ranged from “feed the dog” to “take out the garbage,” and changed weekly through a random drawing. We wrote the “jobs” on slips of paper and drew these slips in turn from a cigar box.
