God Made Moms To Teach Their Children...That Everyone Has Responsibilities

Recently while having a conversation with one of my boys, the comment was made that it was not his responsibility. I responded, everyone in this family has to be responsible and we all have responsibilities when it comes to each other. I explained to him that if we didn't provide him shelter, him food, him clothes, and all his other living expenses and/or desires, whose responsibility would it be? Would it be his alone? Who would step in to take care of him, if we didn't. His answer was that is what parents are suppose to do. So I replied kids are suppose to do what their parents tell them to do especially when they are the ones taking care of them. Never bite the hands that feed you I said. I also told him, there are many parents who do not take responsibly for their children, just like there are kids who do not want to take on responsibilities for themselves but if you want to continue to be provided for, you have to take on some responsibilities of your own. I told him someday he would understand and appreciate being responsible. Ladies, my son was complaining about having to help his younger brother pick up after himself but the point I was trying to make to him was that we all have responsibilities as family.
