Yes. Learning to manage one's own life is important, and making it a fun process from an early age is worthwhile.
The goal is not to "get kids to do chores" per se, but to raise adults who are self sufficient and self reliant. "Chores" is a bit of a loaded word because I think a lot of people associate it with dread and a sort of low key undeserved punishment, which is certainly not the goal. In this context it is more akin to having a child pass you pegs while you are trying to hang the washing on the line as opposed to parking them in front of a screen or compete for your attention.
What if I’m super wealthy, and i don’t do any chores but have servants who do them all? Is the important part then to teach them how to treat the servants perhaps?
Yes. Along with getting them to wash teeth and shower.
Don't forget we wipe from front to back!
“Get kids used to contributing to the household while developing life skills”. Getting chores done is a pleasant side-effect.
