What jobs should a 9 year old be doing around the house??

[Allthreerolledintoone]

I want my 9 year old to learn the value of money and to have some responsibility. His attitude sucks at the moment and he is not willing to help around the house at all even with a money incentive. I am not sure where to start really. His younger brother is 6 and he loves doing odd jobs and the idea of earning money.
Should I make my 9 year old do things like make his own bed or do his own dishes. He is quite immature and works very hard in school. He is possibly dyslexic so I do understand that when he's home he just wants to chill out. I just want him to have motivation and a good working attitude for when he leaves school. I never did jobs around the house when I was young but my dh did but we both have a good working ethic. I want ds to acquire life skills to compensate for his academia.

My 9 yo is quite young for her age and very much the baby of the family but she is responsible for tidying her own room, putting her washing Ito dark/light washing tubs, putting her clean washing away, emptying the cutlery out of the dishwasher and taking out the recycling.

My 9 yo DD loves to cook, can he help with that? She can make simple meal with very little help and bakes alone. She cleans after herself.

She helps shower her little sister, collect twigs for the fire, will hoover her bedroom and both love cleaning windows.

Not great on tidying and beds.

Can you find something he will enjoy?

Empty the dishwasher
Feed, water, and exercise pets
Hoover and/or sweep
Clear table after meals
Replace toilet paper
Hoover car
Tidy up toys throughout the house
Make own bed
Out away own clean clothes

All reasonable and possible chores for a child of this age, in my experience. Add a few more responsibilities every year, and by the time they are 18 they should be self sufficient

my 8 year old has to clean and polish his school shoes and help with washing up at the weekend to earn his pockets money. He can earn extra for weeding the garden.
He is expected to put his clothes in wash basket and put away his clean clothes, lay the table for tea, and help with fire wood tasks. These do not gain him money that are just some of the jobs we all do as part of the family team.

He just doesn't want to do any thing. I feel bad as I know he has to do a lot of home work. If he made his bed and did the breakfast dishes and put laundry in the basket I'd be happy. It's my own fault for leaving it too late :-/

I once read that kids are motivated by money, freedom and status.

so while your youngest is happy to have money, what about being able to stay up half an hour later, get "the latest thing", being allowed to invite a friend round for a sleepover, trip to rock climbing wall - would those kind of things appeal?

Keeping own room/possessions tidy is the minimum. You need to organise their room with the right storage etc to make this possible first.

I'm not sure what my 9 year old DSS does at his mums but here I get him to tidy his room, clear up after himself (toys etc) put his washing in the laundry basket, put away clean clothes, take put plate/cup and occasionally make tea
DH had him dusting the other day...
