Parents, naturally, contribute more to a child than the child contributes back. As soon as the child sees this he becomes unhappy. He seeks to raise his contribution level; failing, he gets angry at the contributing source. He begins to detest his parents. They try to override this revolt by contributing more. The child revolts more. It is a bad dwindling spiral because the end of it is that the child will go into apathy.
You must let the child contribute to you. You cant order him to contribute. You cant command him to mow the grass and then think that is contribution. He has to figure out what his contribution is and then give it. If he hasnt selected it, it isnt his, but only more control.
