In our household even the adults got chores. The chore wheel worked great, that and making the kids "cook" at least one night each week, do laundry, and shop prepared them for moving out.

Re: What are you reading?
Perhaps you live in the kind of household that likes to divide up the chores. You take the dishes, while someone else does the trash. If so, you are not so far off from the habits of a naked mole-rat, according to a new study.
The findings, published Wednesday in the journal Science Advances, show that individual naked mole-rats perform specific duties for their colony, including digging, transporting garbage, and cleaning the “toilets.” The study reveals that the rats undertake a form of task allocation that helps the colony function more efficiently, according to the researchers.
