Children will easily learn what is right and expected if they see and experience it daily (Davis

& Davis, 2013) .There a many character that you can build when you always helping doing

work at home. But how helping at home will develop our character?

First and foremost, it can install a sense of responsibility in our heart. If you have a

strong sense of responsibility for your action or someone,

you will ever abandon your duty and straightly deal with it.

Helping doing work at home provide someone a means to

hold themselves accountable for their actions. For an

example, when we make a mess after playing with our

anywhere. One of the best ways to teach your child about responsibility is to model the

behavior for her (Jamie Farnsworth Finn ,2020). This action can coach us to be more sensitive

with dirty environment thus educating us to always responsible for own actions and mistakes.

This is one of the good character that really admirable because a sense of responsibility can

make someone a good leader. It is because a responsible leader always taking care of all his

subordinates problems and never neglect them. So by doing work at home, we can install a
sense of responsibility and develop a good characteristic that really beneficial for us.

Besides that, we can also foster a sense of independence by helping doing work at

home. Independence is someone that free from the influence or control of another and he can

do all work and also support himself. Helping doing work at home can teach us many useful

life skills. We can use the opportunities to learn and practice the skill and the way of life from

our parents. There are many ways how we can become

independence from helping at home. For an example, we can

try help our parents doing household chores such as sweeping

floor, wash the car, cooking and washing clothes. As we observe

and help carry out these activities, we can also become more

Being independence allow us become self-sufficient and better prepared to living on our own. It is
more skillful when doing any work in because we can apply all the skills that we learn from our
our life parents on our daily lifestyle. We can also volunteer to help with

planning menus for dinner and shopping for groceries at the market. When we often doing

shopping for groceries, a sense of independence automatically will be nurtured in ourselves

while we become more knowledgeable about groceries and cooking stuff. Hence, helping at

home will definitely will foster a sense of responsibility in ourselves.

By helping at home, we can also become a hardworking person. Hardworking is a
character for someone that is diligent and puts effort into doing and completing task. When
we often helping doing works at home, our attitude automatically changed from a lazy person
to a hardworking person. This is because we always forced by the parents to help them
although it is opposite from our desire. When we always doing that activities and make it as
our routine, eventually it will become a new norm for us and educate us to become a
hardworking person. For an example, helping our mother at the kitchen by wash the dishes
and cooking for dinner can make us become more hardworking. Although at that time we want
to play video games or watching television. But try to oppose your thoughts and prioritise to
help our mother at the kitchen. We can apply this good attitude and characteristic in our life
by always become a hardworking person when doing any task that our manager gave to us.
Although sometime we can become lazy and have many other work to do, but try to finish the
work that we are doing it right now. By doing that, we can manage our time properly and
efficiently while all our task is complete. We can clearly see that helping doing work at home
will make us become a hardworking person.

As a conclusion, there are many benefits for developing our characters from helping
our parents or siblings at home. Whether we like it or not, helping at home are a necessary

part of everyday life. It is because it can ensure that our home continue to run efficiently, and
that our living environments remain organized and clean. Helping at home also promoting a
good overall mind and body health and safety. Hence, we must try to make helping at home
as one of our daily routine in our life because it provides an excellent opportunity for character-
building besides school. Not everything we can learn at school. In fact, half of our learning and
character-building process comes from home and our experience.
