Mom, the Toughest Job in the World
母亲，世界上最艰苦的工作
If you know me, you know that I always describe moms as our domestic engineers as having the toughest jobs in the world.
如果你认识我,你知道我一向都描述妈妈像国内工程师一样是世界上最艰苦的工作。
They have so many hats to wear, so many balls to juggle, the cleaning, the cooking, the kids education, and on and on.
她们有很多帽子要戴,很多球来玩耍,清洗,烹饪,孩子的教育,等等的一切。
So the question is does it really have to be the toughest jobs in the world, does it have to be that tough?
所以问题是这是否真的是世界上最艰难的工作,真的很难吗?

First of all, dads can help more.
首先,爸爸可以帮忙。
There is no doubt about that.
而这点是毫无疑问的。
But you what, I think kids can help more, too.

Moms do too much for their kids, they spoil their kids.

I think they should be teaching their kids how to clean a little.

Why should moms clean up after their kids, if their kids are old enough to do themselves?

It does make sense to me.

Spoiling a kid is not going to make the toughest job in the world any easier.

If you teach a kid how to clean you are teaching him a great skill, and how to take care of themselves, and how to be more responsible.
如果你教一个孩子如何清洁，你就教会他很了不起的技巧,以及如何照顾自己,如何能更负责任。
