Willing to help

Our family had signed up to go to our church tonight to help clean it. My younger kids were kind of excited to get to go wander around the church for a non-church function. My older kids had visions of cleaning toilets.

Imagine my surprise when my 12 and 14 year old boys were actually arguing over who was first in volunteering for a job. I was not happy with their fighting but somewhat pleased that they would be so anxious to get right to work. I wished that they would do that at home.

I then found out what job they both wanted so much to do. Do you think if I bought one of these for my home I'd never have to bribe, yell, or threaten to get the vacuuming done?
