Part of being a parent is to prepare your children for their adult years. Unless you're from the Hilton or Osbourne family, you will need to work to make money. I don't see any reason why they shouldn't start early on and know what it is like to work hard and get rewarded for the effort you put into the job you do. I cleaned my room weekly and did the dishes every night for $2/week growing up. Yeah, the amount has changed over the years but the reason behind it is still the same and it should remain that way.
