"In essence, it is a “return to the farm” - children contributing and
collaborating. I grew up on a farm/ranch and I had meaningful work
everyday of my life. Our livelihood depended on each person doing
his or her job well, and it was vital work indeed. If I was asked to
ride a horse through blizzard conditions to pick up a newborn calf it
was important that I did so; otherwise, a calf that would eventually
be worth as much as $2000 or more dollars would die frozen in the
night. Many do not have that kind of responsibility today and that is
okay, but without something to be responsible for a child is missing
the opportunity to be valued. This should happen at home, but it
can be reinforced at school as we help students, young and old, to
accept jobs that have value and substance and are meaningful in
a young person’s life in today’s busy world. The jobs are simple,
but they are important, and we should provide opportunities for
students to serve as they learn and learn as they serve."
