Here’s a gem of a question I hear weekly: Should I pay my kids to do chores? It doesn’t sound like a hard question to answer on the surface, right? But what I’ve found is the topic is touchy and frustrating for a lot of parents. The general consensus I hear is, “I get paid to work, so I should pay my kids to work around the house.” Sure, that makes sense intellectually, but in real life? Not so much.
