Mom Creates Household “jobs” And Makes Her Kids Apply To Get Allowance Money by 175(m): 12:43pm On Jan 24, 2020
Shaketha Marion McGregor is a mom-of-three from Georgia who wanted to teach her beloved children an important life lesson about earning money, so she decided that from now on, they won’t be getting their allowance as easy as coming up to her and nagging her for it.
So, she created a hiring event where her kids had to apply for “jobs” around the house, and they will literally have to work for their allowance, just like grown-ups.

Shaketha seems to have the soul of a successful businesswoman, because the numbers on her Facebook post skyrocketed very quickly. The post received more than 213k likes, over 35k comments, and more than 130k chares.

The jobs for the children were kitchen manager, laundry supervisor and lead housekeeper.

Shaketha’s oldest son Jahkeem is 13, daughter Takeia is 10 and daughter Serinity is 6. Naturally, the everyday necessities can get a bit expensive for a large family, so the mom came up with this brilliant idea.
Heck, she even sent her son a rejection letter after he applied for a position that had already been filled.

Judging by the number of likes and shares her post received and the number of people that had a positive response to her post, we would say that the mom’s plan was brilliant.
What do you think about it? Feel free to tell us in the comments below.

Can this work in our country Nigeria?
Where doing house chores is an inheritance.

My dad did it. Though we didn't write letters but i was informally employed to work weekends with him and get paid and lunches too.
Those at home doing laundry for him get stipends too.
We started this arrangement when i was in ss1 and my salary was 800-1000 monthly, excluding transport and lunches.
The year was 1995-1998. grin

Miss you pops. Learnt so much from you
Rest in peace sir

my mom's way then after outdoing yourself and numerous errands would send you to go and buy #200 recharge card for her and just forget the change (which is impossible)

she does it when she in a good mood you'll just have to read and time it and not return the change. your last chore would be to load the airtime and flex the remaining with 2go


But if its one of those day..... just do your inheritance like the guy above said
