It also helps them to understand the idea of 4______. Since they live in one house with their parents, they should know that everyone should do their part in 5______ it clean and tidy. Our neighbors' son got into a good college but during his first year, he had no idea 6______ to take care of himself. As a result, he often fell ill and his grades dropped. The 7______ kids learn to be independent, the better it is for their future.
