How old is old enough?

[kenyantykoon]

he should have started mowing the lawn when whe turned 11. 13 is too old

Wow,

if 13 is too old to cut the grass, then at 44, I'm too far gone to do it too.

maybe I should just let it grow for awhile and periodically set it on fire to get rid of it!

I'm sure the neighbors would love it - we could roast marsh mellows and maybe hot-dogs. Could be alot of good family fun!

He would be fit to help with chores only when his mom believes that he is old enough

best to check with local laws... you don't want to run into problems with the labor department (for child labor) or the social department (for child abuse).
