I saw something quite interesting at the beauty salon a few weeks ago. There was a woman there getting her hair cut and she had her little girl probably 8 or nine with her. When the hairdresser was finished the girl grabbed the broom and dust pan and swept and swept until she had cleaned all the hair up from around the chair.

After that woman left, the hair dresser's own daughter took the chair to get her hair cut and styled. When she was finished the hair dresser asked her own daughter if she would mind sweeping up the hair. The hair dresser's daughter said, 'Why should I?' She didn't do any sweeping.

Some people are go getters and some are not. Maybe the parents of the first child were very ambitious and wanted to do more than be barber and beautician. I can't speculate. But there was definitely a difference in enthusiasm there.

lol, no kid willingly does the chores at his own house, yet all kids love doing the same chores at the neighbor's house?

Could be aquestion of sweeping up the hair looking like fun or not, Sometimes kid's view helping as fun.When I was a kid we used to like riding with the milk man, helping him deliver the milk. Not because we wanted to be helpful; but because it was fun.

Children need to be put into government run education from birth. Education starts from day 1. The first 4 years of a child are the most important.

Wouldn't selected breeders be a better choice? At age 12 sterilize all children, male & female, except those women to be dedicated breeders, and the few males to be used at stud, and also the males chosen to be future leaders and therefore not subject to the laws of the country?

Just genetically engineer everyone to be absolutely perfect and then clone them. Sex is entirely for recreation
