Should kids get paid to do chores?
ReplyDeleteNO! I think this because your parents get you toys and every thing you need. Another reason is that you should thank your parent by doing chores without getting paid. And my last reason is that some kids will just to get money from there parents.And not frrom there heart.And that is why i think kids shouldent get paid to do chores.
yes because kids do hard work and they clean the table and floor,dishes,bathroom,bedrooms,kitchen tv
ReplyDeletekids clean the couch and the bedroom floor and kids get money for doing chores and babysiting and thats how kids get money
i agree

ReplyDeletetable,floor,dishes,bath room,take out the godbiga,room.
kids cleans the kitchen kids respeks you when you
say to do your chore and if the kid is sleppy and you
still have to do your chore and you still your choret
thats still good.
you still paid him because what if the kid do his chore
until mounts
Kids should be paid because they need money.
ReplyDeleteI don't think kids should be paid to do chores. Kids would only do chores for money. They should do chores to help their parents. When you are older and living on your own, you will not get paid for doing chores. Kids will feel good about themselves they will feel like they accomplished something. These are my reasons for why kids shouldn't be paid for doing chores.
ReplyDeletei think kids should not get money they should just do it to be nice
ReplyDeletewhat happened i wrote julian's answer to should kids get money from chores
ReplyDeleteI don't think kids should get paid to do chores because they already have a home,toys,games. And if parents are poor they would be wasting more money. And if kids didn't get paid it would be easier for them to find out that it's nice to do chores for people. It's good to make people happy. Kids don't need money for that.
ReplyDeleteI think kids should not get paid to do chores because:your parents have already done so much for you,it is a way to pay them back.You should always be kind.
ReplyDeleteI really like it but can you please give more reasons with details?
DeleteI feel kids should not get paid to do chores because parents do a lot for us. My first reason is when ever we need or want something parents are the ones who give it to us. My second reason is by doing chores and not getting paid for it, it shows our parents we really appreciate them.My final reason is they work very hard and we must help them.
ReplyDeleteI agree that kids shouldn't get paid to do chores for these three reasons.One reason is that the kids parents would be wasting their money for no good reason. And my second reason is that mostly the kids would just care about the money more than the chores and getting paid will make the kids more selfish. My third and last reason is that you can't do something to get something back in return because you are the one who is responsible for doing your chores. In conclusion, I believe that you should do your chores without getting paid. My closing statement is when you get older, doing chores will teach you to be more responsible and be independent when you live by yourself.
ReplyDeleteNo.I think kids should not be payed to do chores.For these three reasons your parents always pay and buy things for you ,what you do with the money and if you do chores you will get in the habit of working.My first reason is your parents always pay and give you things but it's nice to help out a little and since your parents pay for everything so you shouldn't get payed for it.My second reason is what would you do with the money I think that you shouldn't use your money on something that isn't very useful like a toy or a something for your doll.My third reason is if you do chores you will get into the habit of working.For example when you grow up and get a job you would be used to it because you did chores plus when your older your more resoponsible and you can take better care of your money
ReplyDeleteI think kids should not get paid for doing chores because they just pay attention to the money. Their Moms and Dads do much more work with out getting paid and most kids hardly do any work. My 1st reason why is that they only pay attention to the money, like they just want the money, and don't do a good job. My 2nd reason why is that their Moms and Dads do so much work, like cleaning the house, doing the laundry, making the lunches and feeding the pets. My 3rd reason is that most kids hardly do any work. They just play while their Moms are doing work. In conclusion, now I hope you feel stronger about my side. You will sometimes get paid for doing chores, but sometimes not.
ReplyDeleteYes kids should get paid to do chores.Kids try hard enof to make money and they will know how to use it for good reasons.Kids will also be helping there family because family goes before friends. Money is not always for adults it's also for childern.In conclusion,now you know my idea.But don't force your parents to give you money or they won't give you money when you do chores cause you have to be responsible.
ReplyDeleteI think kids should not need to get paid for doing chores around the house. My first reason is that kids should not get pade for doing chores around the house because my parents already pay for my needs for example they pay for my clothes and food and toys . My second reason is that doing chores is a normal thing to do and that is to help your family and to thank them for buying your needs.
ReplyDeleteNo,I think kids should not get paid for chores for these three reasons: kids don't need money, parents need money and it's a waste of time when you are a kid.
ReplyDeleteMy first reason is that kids don't need money because they can use the money on something they are not allowed to,for example:you are not allowed to eat candy but you might buy it.
My second reason is that parents need money to pay the bills such as electricity and other bills. For example :You get your chore money and then your parents have to pay the bills and they don't have enough money.
My third reason is that it is a waste of time for kids because when kids have to do something such as reading or writing the kid might start counting and it might take the kid whole day and the kid would waste time.
In conclusion kids should not get paid for chores and I won't get paid for chores.
My first reason is that kids don't need money because kids can use the money on what they are not allowed for an example you are not allowed to buy candy and you buy it with your chore money.
i think kids should no t get paid because your parents do every thing for you you should help them and take care of thing in the house.
ReplyDeleteI think that kids should not get paid to do chores, because if they get paid when kids but not when adults they will have sloppy houses when adults. Parents pay for lots of stuff like: food, bills, school and a place to live. Also kids should do them for free because parents do a lot, so it like giving a present to them.
ReplyDeleteMy first reason is when kids get older like a adult there house is gonna be in bad condition because they only clean for money when they were younger. So as adults, they are getting no money, so they won't clean.
My second reason is parents pay for lots of stuff for kids, they also feed you so yokes are being a little greedy asking for money for doing some chores.
My third supporting reason is that parents will be really happy if kids do chores to say thanks for all you do for me, kinda like a present.
No. Kids should not get paid for chores. Parents pay for clothes, toys, books so it is not fair to pay for chores too. It does not teach children the value of money because kids don't understand the value of money. It does not matter if you have money or not because what's the big deal about money? In conclusion kids should not get paid for chores.
ReplyDeleteYes, I believe that every kid should get paid money for doing choirs. My first reasons is sometimes parents don't buy them all the toys. The second reason is that they can save money for when they grow up. Kids can use the money to buy a home. My last reason is they can save it for food for when they grow up.
ReplyDeletei think kids should not be in different schools because its a chance to make friends with a different gender
ReplyDeletei think no because parents would be giving all their money to their kids and kids will be lazy and only do it for money and not realize there parents need help.
ReplyDeleteNo I do not think schools should separate boys and girls because there would be more kids at school and kids could have a little more fun. My second (and last) reason is if there is variety among kids we all learn more.
ReplyDeleteKids should get paid to do chores because when kids get money it teaches kids to be responsible. Also how to handle money. Also teaches kids that if they work hard they would be rewarded and it teaches kids to be more helpful at home.
ReplyDeleteKids should not be paid to do chores when they get older because the more they get paid the more it will become a habit. They will also expect something in return whenever they do something for good
ReplyDeleteKids should get paid to do chores because when they become teenagers they will want to buy stuff with their own money or parents will not let them use their money so i think they should get a chance to earn their on money. This is why kids should get paid to do chores.
ReplyDeleteYes because, when a kid and then turns into a teen then they will have money to buy stuff wisley.
ReplyDeleteKids should get paid because learn about responsibility and more
ReplyDeletekids shouldn't get paid for doing chores your parents already pay for toys food a bed and lots more so why should they pay for you to clean the floor
