Haven Mantel
Posted March 3, 2011
By admin
The Fireplace mantel needs varnishing. My husband thinks my/our son should do it -- is he old enough?
My son is 10 years old. My husband (not biologically the boy's father, but has played the role since my son was three) thinks our son should do it.
Should he? Isn't he too young for that kind of task? He's a very mature, intelligent, responsible kid, but I'm afraid that varnishing the mantel is too big a job for my son to handle.
My husband thinks it would be good for him.
We haven't mentioned it to my son yet.
What do you think? Too young for this kind of chore? Or old enough to handle it?
10 is a little too young for this kind of chore. My husband is a master craftsman and we don't let the grandchildren do this kind of work until they're around 12. If they work on it together that's a different story, but be safe!
