Most children don’t enjoy doing housework. They like playing computer rather than cleaning the rooms. But in Australia, Jim and Robert’s mother, Mrs. Black, has good and proper methods to get her children to do housework.
Here is an example.
“Mom, have you worked out next week's housework?Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can't wait. It's fun!”
When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, “sweep the floor, clean your room, help mom cook, wash vegetables, make the beds,feed the fish, cut the wood, clean the bathroom” and many others. Jim and Robert chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim likes to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the card “clean the bathroom”.Robert loves to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again picked up “Wash vegetables” and Robert chose”feed the fish”. Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.
To help the children do housework, their mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course, the parents did the housework on the weekend and left Jim and Robert two days free.

I've thought long and hard about how Chinese parents can get away with what they do. I think there are three big differences between the Chinese and Western parental mind-sets.
First, I've noticed that Western parents are quite worried about their children's self—esteem（自尊心）.In other words, Western parents care about their children’s psyches(心灵). Chinese parents don’t. They found that they are strong, not frail(脆弱的)，and as a result they behave verydifferently.
Second, Chinese parents believe that their kids should thank them for everything. The reason for this is a little unclear, but maybe it’s because of Chinese traditional customs(中国习俗) and the fact that the parents have done so much for their children.
Third, Chinese parents believe that they know what is best for their children. So they don't care about their children.
Don't get me wrong.: it's not that Chinese parents don't care about their children. Just the opposite . They would give up anything for their children. It's just an entirely different parenting model.(养育模式).
I’ve thought long and hard about how Chinese parents can get awa with what they do everything for him. They wake him upat 6:00am, and after breakfast his father takes him to school by car. As soon as the young man comes home from school, the supper is ready. Of course, he never does chores.
