No. In America people are free to be as lazy and unproductive as they want. A crafty attorney could probably show you that the freedom to sherk your chores is in the Bill of Rights. I hope so. Otherwise I would voluntarily plead guilty and accept my just punishment of lethal injection for my excessive disregard for chores. And it probably isn't PC these days for parents to enslave their children with things like chore lists and allowances. That would be like punishing them for misbehaving or telling them to pray. Bad stuff. We have come a long way in the past 50 or 60 years. I don't know my facts all that well but I would be willing to guess things like teen pregnancy, firearms casualties in schools, and children on Ritalin (or other psychoses meds) have shrunk considerably.

What kind of chores. Work? Domestic? Everyone has responsibilities and to make it against the law to have to carry these out would make this world a sorry place to be in.
If you're talking about domestic chores, would you rather live in a pig sty? They're done for a reason. To keep the place tidy and hygienic. Should it be against the law for a mother to care for, feed and provide a clean environment for her children? I don't think so. Should it be against the law for younger members of the household to help within the home? Why shouldn't they learn about responsibility at an early age? Why should they expect adults to run around after them without giving anything back?
If it's working chores, then you can't expect to get paid for something you're not prepared to do.

You mean it isn't?? At my house, since I'm both Patrona and Vaquera, I guess I could sentence me, but I'm pretty sure I'd go FAL; soooo, Your question drew a variety of resonses, huh?? Apparently, amongst the youngsters, this is not all that funny. At least if I don't mind me, I don't ground me....kinda changes the perspective, I guess. However, (now I'm the BOSS, here) : It is an adult's responsibility to instill a sense of duty and responsiblity... ah, the heck with it! I didn't like chores, either. (I still don't!)

Hell no! I hate chores. I only do them because I know it has to be done. (BTW, I'm not a kid... at least no according to my age.) If a person can't learn that some things have to be done, there's no law that would teach them that. Laws would just force the person to become more frustrated.

Like we really need laws to dicate how tidy we keep our home or yard (yard already applies in some areas). Let's keep gov't intervention to a minimum.
Your parents (or whomever assigned the chores) are responsible for seeing that you do them and doling out any penalties if they aren't completed.

No, because every kid in the world would be residing in jail at one time, or another.
