    About this ebook

    There's ample research-backed evidence that doing chores can be one of the most beneficial things kids do. Kids who do chores are more like to:

    - Have good relationships with family and friends

    - Achieve academic and early career success

    - Be self-sufficient.

    - Be empathetic and responsive to other's needs.

    - Understand the value of working towards a greater good.

    For these reasons - plus the fact that kids doing chores can ultimately mean less work for you - what parent wouldn't want to begin assigning kids chores today? But getting kids started on chores successfully can be more tricky than simply pulling out a chore chart.

    You're probably wondering:

    - How exactly to introduce the idea of doing housework to your kids

    - Which chores would be appropriate to begin with and which chores are age-appropriate

    - How to keep kids motivated to do their chores

    - Whether or not to pay kids to do their chores

    - What to do if your kids refuse to do chores.

    This book can help! It will teach you everything you need to know about getting started on kids chores AND how to get your kids to actually do their chores.

    Kerry Flatley

    Kerry Flatley is the mother of two girls, ages 11 and 9, whom she’s determined to raise with a self-reliant mindset she feels is the key to success and happiness today and in the future. When she isn’t trying to instill these qualities in her girls, Kerry writes about them on her the parenting website, Self-Sufficient Kids. Self-Sufficient Kids is a community of parents striving to raise children who are independent, confident, discerning, and ready for adulthood — not to mention unlikely to ask their parents to do their laundry at age 23! Kerry committed herself early on to helping her daughters develop these qualities. But she quickly became frustrated trying to navigate the profusion of parenting resources to find advice. Now, through Self-Sufficient Kids, she shares with her community a combination of curated third-party content and her own trials, successes, and missteps as a parent. Born in Chicago and raised in the Midwest, South, and metro-New York, Kerry and her family now call New England home. Her education includes a BA in economics, an MBA, and a certificate in financial planning.
