First daughters Sasha and Malia are getting their puppy at last, but we know who's going to take care of it. Mom, of course. That's the way it always is. Four years ago, my sons begged for a dog, saying it was all they ever wanted and that they would take care of it. Today, the boys, who are about Sasha and Malia's age, love their dog as much as ever. The older one insists on sleeping with him each night. But who walks and feeds the dog? Usually I do. I have to constantly remind the boys to take the dog out for his afternoon walk.
Some kids are more willing to share the work. You can listen to kids who help care for their dogs here. But when it comes to picking up the poo, even these responsible kids say no.
