Some parents think since adults are paid to do their jobs, we should pay kids for everyday housework.But some people don't think kids should get rewards(报酬) for doing housework. Susie Walton, an expert believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn't worth(值得) doing unless you get something in return. "Doing any kind of housework is a team effort." Walton said." A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have duties in the house, and that families decide how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like what they want. "Other people believe that getting a reward encourages kids to do housework, and that it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to get money. There are also apps(程序) that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed(兑现) either online or in the real world. "Our goal is to help kids do their part and then they can get rewards, "says Chris Bergman. "And kids need rewards to help encourage them."11.

"With global warming getting worse, doing nothing on climate and health will cost more than acting now, "one of the report says.The reports are called "code red for a healthy future".
