We discuss convergences and divergences between data collected with two independent methodologies: scan sampling and interviewing. Scan sampling data provide an overview of the frequency of children's participation in household work as well as the types of tasks they engaged in during data collection. Children's interview responses reflect their perceptions of their responsibilities, how they view family expectations regarding their participation in household work, and whether allowance is an effective motivator. Comparative analysis reveals that most children in our study spend surprisingly little time helping around the house and engage in fewer tasks than what they report in interviews. Within the context of children's minimal participation in household work, we find that allowance is not an effective motivator, but that children in families with access to paid domestic help tend to be less helpful than children in families without. We suggest that while most children are aware that their working parents need help, in some families, inconsistent and

Ele deixa o tênis no meio da sala, joga a roupa suja no chão do banheiro e, depois da ducha, a toalha molhada é largada em cima da cama. Se ele já sabe se vestir sozinho, abre a gaveta do armário (não fecha) e fica tudo de qualquer jeito. Você encontra o quarto bagunçado, só que pensa que ele é muito pequeno para deixar a casa em ordem. Também imagina que, caso ele arrume, vai fazer de qualquer jeito. Então, é melhor " poupar " o esforço do pequeno e resolver tudo em questão de segundos. Se você já passou por isso ou pensou assim, é bom rever seus conceitos. Incluir as crianças nas atividades do lar desde muito cedo (a partir dos 2 anos) desenvolve a independência, a responsabilidade, a autoestima, a coordenação motora e ainda faz com que ela dê valor ao trabalho dos outros. " Precisamos mudar o paradigma. A nossa crença é de que criança faz tudo errado. Se os pais deixarem acontecer naturalmente, ela vai ajudar e repetirá igual " , fala Estelle Boecherez, mãe de Chloé, 4 anos.
