Mom Was Having Some Problems
Mom was having some problems with her 16 year old daughter doing her chore of cleaning up the horse corral. The two of them had agreed that corral cleaning was going to be the daughter's job. Upon finding resistance, mom had agreed to pay her since the horses were used more by the parents than the kids and it was over and above her regular chores. Still there was some resistance and finally mom said, "You can either clean up the corral and get paid for it, or clean it up for free, but you will clean up the corral, which do you choose?" She agreed to clean it up and get paid! It's been 3 months and she still gets the chore done every day. Great job, mom!
