I didn't come from as big a family, but I had a mother that knew the value of hard work and passed it on to her children. God Bless You and Your Family!

I am constantly frustrated at their seemingly low work ethic, and always have to remind myself that THIS is how they build a work ethic. Thank you again for this article, it was the shot in the arm I needed to keep going! And I only have 3 kids!!

I came from a family of 8 and the only way we survived, was having reponsibility our parents gave us. Too many parents today think they are helping their children by doing everything for them. My Two year old has more reponsibility then most teenagers these days and he's going to have a leg up in the real world. Thank you for sharing your story.
