Why are children so lazy?

Answer 1

Answer

While there is a percentage of parents that are lazy most are not. When you become a parent you'll realize how much work it really is. Usually both parents work then comes housecleaning, paying bills, taking children to school, picking them up, taking them to sports practices, the doctors, dentist and on and on it goes.

There are some parents that are lazy or appear lazy and it could be they actually don't care, or, it's possible they have an illness or their medications drain them of their energy or make them depressed.

Answer 2

Let's first separate the true meaning of "ignorant", which is akin to "not knowing" or "stupid". Stupid can mean lower intelligence, or simply "not knowing". If you don't know how to write a check, you may have perfectly good intelligence but you are "not knowing" about check-writing. So some parents may not have high intelligence; others may have very high intelligence and try hard too but are "not knowing" about how to raise children. For almost all parents, we fall into the "smart but not knowing" category. It isn't like a baby is born with a tag on the wrist connected to an owner's manual. But at the same time, NO child gets a "Parents Owners' Manual" either. Baby and Parents must get to know--to be "knowing"--about each other, which continues for the entire lifetime of both child and parent/s. Parenting or being "a child of" does not end when a child turns 18 years old; a new chapter just starts. So, when kids are babies, baby and parents learn one kind of parenting. We all learn another kind when kids are school age. But at pre-teen years, it gets even more interesting for the child and parents! Both make all kinds of mistakes--but through mistakes, kids and parents learn. Then, within a couple years, kids turn teenagers--and boy, both kids and parents are challenged to learn new ways and to be even more "knowing" about each other, what each other thinks, feels, believes, wants, needs, etc.! Having a teenager is much harder than labor and delivery and bringing home a "baby". Suddenly, there's a teen-almost-getting-there full blown adult! But not quite! So parents, especially ones who really try to be caring parents, know they must still be "the parent". We must set rules. We must make sure our teens grow up right and have better lives. It isn't easy. But teen kids think they are already all grown up. They think they can do everything and do whatever they want. Parents are there to say, "It isn't as easy as you think to be a real full-grown adult." Teen years are "practice" years... kids get to practice being more in control of themselves and parents get to practice how far to let a kid go before reeling the kid back in before something awful happens.

If you still think your parents are "so ignorant", ask them if you could play a game with them. For one day, you will spend it with your dad; one day with your mom. Ask them to cut up paper to represent "money", then show you how many bills they need to pay. Then, you will need to take the "money" and place the right amount on each "bill". Next, you will practice (on writing paper) how to write a check, a write checks out for each of those bills. Ask what they do when the electric bill is so high they can't pay the fuel bill. After you finish the bills, think of now asking for those $200 shoes you want so badly--ask yourself whether you'd go without food, or without heat, just to buy those shoes. Ask your parents to name one thing they wanted to do but did not because they had childcare responsibilities. Write down 4 things you "complain about" to your parents (you remember). Now as you do mom's or dad's chores around the house, ask your parents to hand you one of those complaints right in the middle of the chore you are doing. Think about the ways your mom/dad are not "so ignorant" after all. You see, parents do a lot more than you realize, each and every day just to keep a roof over your head and food on the table. Think about how much you are "unknowing" about how to be a parent. Does that make you "ignorant"... Does this make your parents "ignorant"...

Children can appear lazy for a variety of reasons including lack of motivation, feeling overwhelmed, or not understanding the importance of the task. It is important to understand the underlying cause of the laziness and address it with positive reinforcement and guidance.
