Responsibility is a good thing, always. Years back my two daughters, early teens, decided they didn't think they had to do their chores, easy stuff too, helping me when asked, dishwashing and the house stuff. I said fine, no allowance. Them: fine. They had to do the chores anyway, wife and I made sure, they were pissed. Smart girls they learned fast, the allowance was a privilege the chores were mandatory. Smart girls learn quickly. I only wish they handled their children the same way but they don't. They are pretty good mothers and better spouses, but they learned that from my wife. And both are stay at home moms with college degrees.

Never had responsibilities. Only problem was suddenly being out on my own and not knowing how to do laundry.
