I really enjoyed reading this. In my opinion, it is good to have your kids do chores. Obviously not all the time, as they need to be kids too. I didnt grow up on a farm or anything but I remember my sister and I were 7 and 8 when we started helping to haul and stack our firewood. We really enjoyed it honestly. Our whole family would go out and contribute so the work was done better and faster. I think you should keep on doing what your doing. your kids will appreciate what knowledge you passed on once they get older. I know I do!
