Why would we work for free? Show me the money!

Apparently, my boys don't work for free...what's up with that?

A conversation on the way to school:

Connor: "We haven't collected any money for doing our jobs"

Me: "Because you haven't done any jobs lately" (I don't count laundry as a job as that is their assigned household chore)

Connor: "Because you have to pay us and tell us what the job is"

Connor and Brady went on to throw out ideas for jobs, including the request for a BIG job that they can share the money on. They also said they wanted to save their money for a toy and hopefully the toy doesn't cost everything they have in their bank, so that they can still have some savings.

I guess it is time for Chris and I to come up with some jobs...and start handing over the quarters or dollars. I wonder what the going rate for child labor is these days?
