Chores are just as important as School

We teach are kids to desire and honor education. I believe it is just as vital to teach our kids to desire and honor hard manual work. I believe part of raising a kid and teaching them to walk in the way of the Lord is to give them chores, and not just a few, and also not to the point of exacerbating them, but a good healthy number of chores is important. We should teach them to value and love good and hard labor and good stewardship of the resources God has given us. We should teach them to honor people who work with their hands just as much as those who work with their minds. It is the fear of the Lord that gives people honor, my child’s character is just as important as what they know.
